Re: Urban Danger documentary I like it so far, good information. But I dont think living out in the country really starts you off that much better. Yes, being off the grid is a good advantage. Being self sustaining is a good advantage. Having direct access to your own food and water is a good advantage. Having your family outnumbered 20 to 1 when the angry hungry hostile city folk comes a knockin is not a good thing. If you are out of city, self sustaining and dependant on nothing but yourself, home and self defense must be your #1 priority. If you truly are on your own enough to be a few minutes away from help, as in friends or others familys, you better have enough people in your home who can defend it to make it possible to survive a bunch of angry people trying to steal your stuff. I personally dont see how any place is really better than the next, each has its own good and bad.

Re: Urban Danger documentary I'd rather be on my 1.5 acre plot than be in South East Houston living behind Mobil Oil refinery with god damned ms13 wetbacks every 5ft. If you have never lived in a rough urban environment, you wouldnt have much to reference, but I'll take the country ANY day of the week. I absolutely HATE when I enter into the city limits....its like entering the gates of babylon.

Re: Urban Danger documentary Watched the first hour. As a city slicker I found the way these country folks lived very calming and interesting. Id like to be able to do a fraction of the things they do. The hard part is now convincing my family that we need to get out of the city and go someplace quieter. Its too bad they think im fear mongering when I talk about a SHTF situation. I won't give up.

Well, owning the land you live on makes all the difference in the world. Nobody dies defending his boarding house.

Re: Urban Danger documentary Great Find CG! I found the stories to be very inspiring and they gave me a few ideas.

You only own it as long as TPTB decide you do. If you are located somewhere, especially during a SHTF scenario, that they need, you will be vacated, if force by necessary. Or as long as you continue paying your taxes on it, and if you dont then you have it taken away. Not quite ownership but I understand what youre saying. If it comes down to it I'm defending my life, wherever that is is secondary. I just dont see a huge advantage to being out in the middle of no-where without the ability of any form of help because theyre too far away. Make no mistake, if things get this bad, NO ONE is immune. It will hit those in the city first, and most likely the most savagely, but to think that hungry angry mobs wont find someone out in the woods is crazy. Especially if they see gardens and sources of food. It will hit us all. Those in the country will have more time to prepare and they will need it. What do you do when you see a mob of 50 people who want what you have bearing down on your house and family? Do you fight them off, possibly dying in the process? Do you give in to them and give them enough to send them on their way(for this day anyways). It will be a horrible situation anyways. Look at the world now. There is no decency, integrity, or honor, and that is with virtually free access to everything anyone could need, including the poor. What happens when the thin veil of "society" is taken away? People who have never had a hostile thought in their life will be looking for easy targets to help feed his family. It will be a jungle. And not being able to blend in in any way because youre stuck out in the middle of no where will not help you when you are inevitably discovered. A situation like a couldesac,(sp) or small neighborhood of your militant friends and family would be ideal. Just 5-6 houses with families, all of which could provide 3 or 4 shooters and come to the defense could work. It would be a more intimidating and imposing threat to mobs of looters and scavengers to see a group of people waiting for them in a defensible area as opposed to one or 2 people out in their yard.

Really? You think so? If you are stuck in the city then getting together in a small community for mutual protection is a great idea. However a secluded retreat doesn't have to be as defenseless as you make it seem. First factor is proximity. In your road warrior type scenario fuel is going to be hard to come by. The further they have to drive the more fuel they use and the smaller the chance they will reach you. Or bother trying. Unless they have intel that you are out there and well stocked, do they even have a reason to go down a remote country road when there are plenty of places to plunder right on the highway? Mountainous locations like in the movie are easily defended. Think about the terrain in mountainous areas. Lots of small bridges across creeks that can be taken out, roads carved into mountain sides that could be blocked by a rock slide. Large trees right on the side of smaller roads that could be felled to prevent access. Many of these properties might only have access by a small dead end road to begin with. Which means you only have to worry about raiders coming from one direction. Most of time it might only be a couple of people that have the foresight to move out to a location like this but do you think that if TSHTF certain family members and friends wouldn't also join them? That means instead of 1-2 people with guns you might have 6-10 people or however many you think your land could support. Then there are the dogs for early warning and defense and possible booby traps. One lookout at a higher elevation could watch any entry points for miles around. If you see them coming you can ambush them. It's your forest. You know the terrain. Since your mostly self sustaining you don't have to leave. You won't have people coming and going all the time that will give your position away. That's the whole point. Still think that living in the mountains and being self sufficient makes you easy prey?
