A lot of people asked them self this during the pandemic and the blm riots . People started to horde basic items try to buy guns and ammo etc out of fear of their neighbor. Myself Im a Mountain boy who lived in a very remote part of the nations where I had a 60 mile drive to a wall mart. . I grew up on a farm and now live in central Florida near the coast. I'm prepared for short term emergency's such as a hurricane or a riot or short term shortages . I have a generator a extensive first aid kit where I have numbing agents suture kit antibiotics etc for a emergency. I am a gun guy and a re-loader so I have firearms for self defense and hunting and fishing eqt. and a large supply of ammo on hand for my use and barter and trade. I have a freezer full of meat and a couple months of dry and canned goods on hand . so I'm prepared for a short term emergency that I can foresee as being possible. You cant cover everything that could happen .
