"The Vision" is like a version of an scenario that the class and the instructors would have concluded assuming that the power was suddenly lost throughtout North America.

Sadly, my hubby and I live in the heart of the Detroit suburbs. We can't sell our condo for the life of us. We just turned prepper last year, so at this point I'll just have to trust the Good Lord that he'll take care of us in a situation like this. <BR/><BR/>Excellent story... I'm curious to know why you're calling it a "vision" though. Did I miss that?

I won't comment on some of your thoughts here. ha!<BR/><BR/>Far, there is no complete "lock down" without armed guards in position and on the "ready". This is also assuming these guards will shoot them down in repealing an attack. Not bloody likely, not in this case. I've investigated this matter in depth.<BR/><BR/>During the Northeastern Blackout of 2003, people did not bug out, and it was business as usual. Of couse this scenario is quite different, I've got to wonder, how many will bug out? How many have a place to bug out? Perhaps the biggest question of all, how many people will attempt to flee at the same time?<BR/><BR/>I've left a lot to one's imagination here, eh?<BR/><BR/>Thanks, yooperyooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11297259993402713368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3664872774352256800.post-62726623671295808612008-02-12T20:53:00.000-08:002008-02-12T20:53:00.000-08:00Chaos, alright.

I wondered if you might meet anyone along the way — the longer you stay put, the better chance that someone will have set up in your bug-out point first.<BR/><BR/>I'll admit to having given some thought to roadblocks here — we're near a state highway, and it would be easy to drop a couple of trees at the intersection — but it wouldn't amount to much with a little equipment and determination. When one of the bridges partially washed out here after a really heavy rain (we got a lot of dying hurricanes up here in 2005), the county put up concrete barricades to close the bridge. Farmers used their tractors to drag the barricades out of the way. :-P<BR/><BR/>I wonder if the guards might have just locked down the prison completely and walked away, leaving the prisoners to their fate. One way to deal with the problem…<BR/><BR/>You know, a lot of lake houses in the state south & west of Grand Rapids are summer homes for Chicagoans. The house next to my dad's place, that burned down & took his house with it, was one of those. I could imagine in such a situation that people fleeing from Chicago might have run-ins with squatters.Larry Kollarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08317037795075278427noreply@blogger.com
