    This probably goes without saying, but a large portion of the population doesn’t think these things through. They like guns, they have hero/murder fantasies, and they are paranoid and driven by fear to be “tough” and “ready.”

    They are not planning out how to actually stay alive. They are planning how to kill and acquire. And I’m going to take a wild guess that many of these types also want to make sure their politicians are hurting the right people.

    And just in case this comes across wrong, let me point out that this is not all preppers or people who live off the grid. It’s the gun-toting US conservative type. It is not the guy actively living off the land who has a shotgun and rifle in his cabin.

      When the Apocalypse comes. They want to be a Negan-like warlord who takes everything others have stockpiled by force.
