As far as the citiots coming out into the country and taking the rural folks stuff , food, etc.. I don't know all about the rest of the country, but around here, the citiots will likely become dog food, or hog food.
Folks can call , **, but unless you live around here & know folks, you are not gonna get many hunting opportunities for anything but maybe small game, even before ****. The deer hunting around here is locked up tighter than dicks hatband. Meaning THEY are hunting their land & YOU are not likely to be welcomed on it, particularly if ****.
Try stealing their livestock & it may be the last thing one does.
Most of these folks are NOT going anywhere & they are NOT going to welcome any strangers easily.
Yes, you have folks who are Christians, and may be likely to lend a hand , but I would not count on it happening if word gets out that those they help are not good folks. Folks help out their neighbors out here in the rural areas & if someone heard gunfire, they would likely make it a point to go check on their neighbors, although possibly in a stealthy manner. Plus, the folks know the land & the citiots will not.
Now , there may be some who disagree with me. I am not planning to respond here after this post. I was just trying to let folks know that unless they are "from around here", & know folks, they will likely not be welcomed without suspicion, if they are welcomed at all. It is bad enough for a feller like me to live here in this rural town for 21 years & although I have friends/acquaintances from here, I am still a "foreigner" to most local folks I meet here for the first time in the area, and am not treated more like a "local", until I am vouched for by someone who "Is from around here", and is "local".
Check it out yourselves, anywhere. Go drive out in the sticks & just pull into a drive, get out of your vehicle(if ya can without a dog biting ya), and simply go up to the door & ask to deer hunt when season rolls around. See what you get for a response.
If ya do something like that, imagine what the response would be if ****. I'm betting it would not be as easy, whether they say it is OK or not, even before a **** situation.
When it comes to food & survival, not many are going to let someone with a "weapon"( bow, firearm, etc.) simply come along & take what they want for game, or anything else. Particularly, if they have more than one mouth to feed. I assure ya, they will not take it kindly, permission before **** or not.
G'Luck to any & all if something bad happens, but just remember that there is gonna be a whole lot more folks wanting what you have, whether you like it or not, & most will be willing to make you give things up & they don't plan on giving you anything for it, except maybe a difficult situation to deal with, IF you survive the encounters without injury or death. Particularly more difficult, if you are solo & only yourself to depend on. While it may be easier for a solo person to feed & take care of themselves when not ill or injured... Ponder on how you are gonna do all by yourself when You have been shot & survived the shooting or accident, but still need to be able to do what ya need to do to survive. Consider the climate & what sort of shelter you have, if any at the time & how are you going to deal with that for the time it takes to heal...All by yourself...
Yes, it is an interesting subject, but I am of the impression that it may be easier for folks to "bug in", if they can , with those around them to stay working as a community, than it is for those who try to go out & "survive off, "Other Peoples Land".
I will stop with that... Anyway, just some things to think on.
