Urban survival

Fox News recently did a segment on urban survivalists:



Note the (mostly) lack of discussion of the importance of weapons until the very end, until Hannity brings it up. Weapons and the knowledge and will to use them are an integral part of survival, urban or otherwise. Certainly only a part, but an essential part nevertheless.

Note also the typical clueless reporter, who herself is admittedly unprepared, even apparently on a very basic level. Hopefully she and others will at least start the process of basic preparedness. Otherwise, when a large-scale emergency strikes, these sheep-like folks will become lambs for the slaughter, unable to take care of themselves or provide even the most basic necessities for their own survival. No doubt with lots of plaintive bleating for others to help them.
