Chances

[Paul]

Problem is what if you don't have a BOL?

I'm probably like a lot of folk on the forum who haven't to a BOL yet listen to talk of bugging out to a prepared BOL and sitting there until whatever has happened finishes then gaily go about reaping the rewards.

You city folk. I really feel for you.
Just don't get the idea that country living is easy or the answer. It ain't.
Round here the farmers will shoot first with the local population reloading for them. I'll probably load for them as well. Simple survival.

Luckily I'm rural so immediate bug outs (apart from being forced out) mean I can probably stay put for a while.
My plan is to appear totally grey and look like I've got nothing to offer.
Not much of a plan but realistic as like some I've no BOL to run to.

If I've got to bug out, I'd guess I'll last a while although how long a while is is open for interpretation. I'm guessing about 400 miles.
Then I'll be just like the rest of you.

Why do I think this?
Because once I leave the physical security of the home my tank of fuel won't last for ever.
Once the motor goes silent, I'm just another bit of meat for the grinder.

ANYONE caught in the open will be the same especially if you're trying to stagger along with 101 things in your pack.

Pessimistic viewpoint? Not really.
Like a few on the forum I've seen refugee columns so I'm not sitting here with rose coloured glasses on.
