and probably could manage to scavenge at least a week or two's food from corner shops, etc. so in all honesty I'd be looking at staying away for at least 3 Months, then a very very careful daytime recce or sniper type observe, getting into place before dawn and stayingput for at leat 24+ hours just observing. Then a fully armed recce patrol with the intent of recce and destroying any attempt at interception by straglers who if there are any left at this point would be highly aggresive, possibly on the last remaining supplies of drugs. Dont forget what hitlers storm troopers achieved on anphetamines. I've had personal experience of fighting two coked up people at once, its a hard fight as they dont go down for long, they just bounce back up, so be prepared to use deadly force instantly or you may find yourself in a fight you cant win. Please trust me when I say fighting with drugged up individuals is VERY different from normal hand to hand combat.

The rule of 3 is fair. But I think 3 months away is going to be REALLY hard!!! Most people, myself included don't have a 3 month BOB. My kit would be pushed at 2 weeks. But I think 3 would be doable.....just.

The main thing is to be able to view wht is going on, but not to do anything that would attract attention to yourself.

One major item I'd want to have would be the bow and arrow, but also an air-rifle. It wouldn't be deadly force, but it would be enough to get people to run back to where they came from. Then you can track them and see where their strong hold is. But for me, I'd just use that information to know where to avoid.

The safari thing sounds awesome! I'd just have to take out the monkeys though. Most other things would be getting to the roof tops.

If you can survive a harsh winter, odds are the animals cant. But that's okay. You could make it into a fun safari adventure!!! haha.
