True. If you leave your social support to get out into the woods, alone or only with your family, you better hide well.
I agree. In such a scenario, if you’ve ever planned or even contemplated escaping the cities and getting out into the wilderness to get away from everyone, MANY other people, especially outdoorsmen or survivalist types, have the same plans too, and I’m betting that even the middle of the wilderness will become full of survivalist groups (and some individuals) establishing their own territories and living off the land, as well as transgressing on others’. And even a cabin or house that’s off the grid ‘in the middle of nowhere’ will be discovered sooner or later.
I am not saying not to do anything; I’m only saying that a lot of other people have already thought about the same things.

What I was talking about is if one lives in say a larger town or city.
That is not the place to be, that would be even worse than putting up with the survivalist types out in the woods.
Being around too many people would not be good, just saying.
I'm not even sure where I would fit into that, because I live in a city but don't live in an urban area, nor a small town out in the country. It's more a suburb area.
I do get along well with my neighbors, and I'm sure that at least some would probably band together. But you don't really know until or unless something like that really happens.
Inner city or areas like that, forget it. Those will look like The Purge the quickest.

Jim,
That is the point.
The past 2 years or has shown me a lot about how a lot of people really are.
Imagine if something really bad happened, I mean really bad like they are talking about here.
Chaos would come very quickly.
Other people would be the biggest issue by far.
