I do see the moral to this NR,.. but to be honest if most of us were in a situation where by we knew we were short on something, or need to do something in the near future,... would we wait untill such times as law and order failed before getting it

I know that I wouldnt, if I was short on something I would try to ensure I get it before I was in dire straights, I would concider this act to be a nessesity in my survival,... I am sure hundreds of people would be doing the same, including the law enforcers

I am not sure if there would be a time when there would be `no need` to loot,....ok if an event was slow coming then of course we should all hold fast and let the authorities deal with it,..and us,.... but if the situation was fast coming, and the shtf within days, then I wouldnt be holding fast and hoping that the authories would help me

This is why we are preppers of course,..as preppers we are trying to have things in place so that we can go while others panic and loot
