what you do if you carry a gun or knife and any kind of military or law enforcement comes along you just tell them what you have. it is your right as a citizen to carry those things.

In the event it hits the fan, I’d be much more concerned about being able to protect my family and myself. If you don’t have a gun, get one and learn to shoot. If you have a wife and she doesn’t know how to shoot, teach her. The same goes for your kids. Unfortunately, the police or National Guard will take time to get organized and make their presence known. Until then YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN AND THE WORLD IS FULL OF TWO LEGGED PREDATORS. And I sure wouldn’t be worried about law enforcement thinking I was a “bad guy” if they saw I was armed. The post by The Poet misses the point about personal protection and with his attitude he would be a victim early in the crisis.

The Red Cross will come in after a disaster and evaluate buildings first, then establish shelters. Knowing which buildings will survive a disaster isn’t a known quantity, merely a hope.

…With meds, the expiration dates are at least twice as long as what is listed, think about it, the more they sell….the happier the shareholders are….

Thank you so much for your website. I am a nurse but am disabled but I can still suture and do some other life saving measures.

I think its always a good idea to have a small, battery-powered AM/FM radio. I don’t know if that has already been mentioned.

Great list. Might add a pair of leather work gloves & to be sure everyone is up-to-date on their tetanus shot.

In regards to carrying a knife/axe (and in my case, a gun), I’ll certainly take my chances at being perceived as a threat to rescue workers over taking my chances at not protecting my family against looters/etc.
