Good evening survivors, A Lot of people have their own personal scenario and what they expect to happen or want to happen, but with this thread I want to ask the question what do you believe to be the biggest threat to western society.
You have people what believe in economic meltdown, terrorist getting hold of primed nuclear warheads, racial war due to limitless immigration ETC...
What's yours guys?
HideandSeek
All of the above and more
Food/fuel shortages, rising unemployment, economic collapse ( the greeks are up shit creek)and the possibilty of civil unrest. Add to that the the more recent floods and possible solar flares.
Not a pretty picture
To me what are the chances of a
Economic crash
Terrorist attack
Fuel crisis
Food crisis
Solar flare
Civil unrest
Flooding
Extremely Real
Good question.
It's got to be fuel for me. Without it every item on the list would happen IMO.
If anything else on the long list of scenarios happened we'd have a good chance of putting it right for example with aid, government support, transport etc in the short term anyway.
Without fuel every part of our way of life falls to pieces.
I don't expect anything, and hope for nothing, but prep for everything
Possible top three threats in order are probably.
Social unrest due to Economical crash.
Emp attack from either a solar flare of a Emp bomb
These two would probably cause country wide upheaval
Then more local, but might effect other parts of the country through things like food/fuel supplies, might be........... terrorist attack

.... but threats might well change as often as week by week
I used to have a very acute view of what I expectdd to happen.
That view has massively changed!!!
Economic collapse wouldn't surprise me, but I don't see that becoming a total WROL situation. Yes, look at Greece. You see the horror stories, but not the guy that goes go work 9-5 has a wife and kids, and is unaffected by the Greece situation. The economic furmoil is simply a major hickup, and not a total collapse. Check out the great depression, not a total civil-wat collapse.
Weather will regularly cause cracking points, but they're temporary.
See previous comments in all the locked threads.
human desperation in any form plus destruction of nature.
i suggest you look at the "Scenario" threads, makes interesting reading.
