Look brothers and sisters... I'm right there with you. Everytime I'm in the store I grab a box if its there.

Why though? Is it one of these scenarios?

  1. We become like Venezuela and have to protect ourselves because the police are nonexistent

  2. We have to fight a war

  3. We plan on using ammo to barter with

  4. We plan on arming the local militia

Did I forget anything?

Here is the problem.. none of those scenarios make any sense.

  1. We already had to protect ourselves, for many of us police are miles away and we are the first responder. We didn't need stacks of ammo for a singular threat.

  2. If we go into a hot war, most of us won't be the one's fighting it. Yeah I know some of you fellers think your tactical and shit but the truth is very far from that.

  3. There are better things to barter with. Antibiotics, bic lighters, food.... and those are things you can continue to use if you're in a SHTF situation.

  4. I don't see any organizing. I don't see any ready to do much of anything as Communism grows stronger daily.

I'm not a fucking fed. I am however a person that sicks of seeing my brothers and sisters GET FUCKED from all angles.

Personally I think the fear that keeps you on Q's tit... complacent and waiting is the same fear that has you spending PRECIOUS RESOURCES on ammo and firearms that you'll never fucking use.

Were getting reamed on all sides folks and its time we wake up and realize that some of our closest allies might be our biggest enemies.

If you survive and get away your gonna need bullets down the road again. Average firefight uses 350 rounds so do the math.

It's not going to be a single instance if you survive the first you can guarantee others are coming

Seriously asking where did you get the 350 rounds figure?

That's 10+, 30 round mags dumped out of an AR.

Point being that's not sustainable as an individual no matter how much you have stockpiled. If we are in a situation where were dumping 350 every firefight we are in a kinetic war and none of us will survive if were fighting individually as partisans.

I get that figure based off the normal raid combat load of US infantry. Maybe I'm wrong but that's what I'm read.

If you are always on the run and play defense in a siege like you said then your correct. But if your trying to fight back guerilla warfare then your first objective is to attack supply depots and places of support and targeted ambushes which means to you choose when and how to strike. You won't fight everyday if you only hit one target every other week that means with 2000 rounds you can offer 2- 3 months of fighting without re supply for ammo. Not saying that's exactly how you would do it but the point is For everyday of supplies you have further increases your ability to have a sustained resistance until you can steal more supplies from enemies.

I don't disagree.

Its just everyone is planning like they are going to do guerilla assault. My point is not everyone is going to do it.

We are so fucking disorganized. There is no way any of this transpires because were all LARPing it.

If it was really going to happen we'd have some people creating the ammo dump, some people organizing for support, etc., etc.

The Revolution ain't gonna happen fren.

That's always been the case in every war. Especially with non state fighters. Almost 99% of the population isn't gonna do anything. There are people out there though in that 1-2%. It's not going to be pretty and people will be called terrorist and they will die

I think the question I would have for you is does it matter how many people are willing to stand besides you? Does it change the right thing from being the right thing? If you have made the decision to fight then your decisions should drive solely from that
