Religion (whatever it might be) will always find a way to stay and systems develop quickly.

There will always be some kind of system that will be developed on whatever level even if small.

I'm not sure exactly how far back in history your talking about but I might be a little young to honestly comment on them past similar scenarios. I'm assuming since we have systems in place now it's safe to take your word. The few years I been on earth I found many things dont end happily ever after & the good guy doesn't always win like in the movies, it's actually nice to hear that sometimes in real life it does happen.

It's easy to take the written word out of context when it's not accompanied by tone of voice and/or facial expression. Although I am a kind person at heart, and killing is the last thing I would ever want to do again, I assure you, under the right circumstances, I will be as savage and brutal as one can possibly be.

You don't have to stockpile just ammo. Prepping isn't just about hoarding food. It's about picking up skillsets that will allow you and your family to survive in a post-government world. Self-sufficiency. Gardening, foraging, survival, raising animals for food, fixing things on your own, etc, all fall into that category. You can feed your family, and take care of your family with no worry about being dependent on someone else.

No one of us is going to survive indefinitely after this all goes down. We need to band together with those we trust, so that we can form solid little communities that take care of each others' needs until some sort of order can be established. Security, food, comfort, etc.

Look into it some if you care to. You just might find someone nearby that you can band up with that'll show you how to grow your own potatoes, then your family need never go hungry, and you need not risk your life to take from someone else. Because living like that, someone *will* eventually outgun you. And then what for your family?

Just some things to think about. I'll not derail the thread further with my ramblings.

It's about picking up skillsets

To many generations now "have to" aquire skills,that were once common parenting practices into the later 70's.
