Your driving home after a normal day at work, radios on and your wondering what's for dinner. As your to your exit on the interstate your car suddenly dies completely and you begin to curse at yourself for not changing the problematic battery in your car. You pop your hood and get out to take a look and you immediately notice all the cars in sight are stopped as well.
You begin to wonder what the problem could be. You reach into your pocket for your cell phone see that its dead as well? After playing under the hood for a few minutes you decide to walk the last two miles home.
On your trip you see that none of the traffic lights are working, lights are out in buildings all around you, and every car you see is stopped dead.
As you home starts gets into your sites your connecting the dots, some sort of EMP event has occurred. You know you have a few weeks worth of food and water in your home and a decent cache of firearms and ammo. As you get to your driveway you see your neighbor loading up his old school Bronco that is running and yelling to his wife and kids to get the rest of their stuff and they wouldn't be seeing home for a while.
As you walk in the door your wife rush's to you and franticly asks" What are we going to do"?
Now the fun begins, I've set the scenario.I'd like to hear what your plan would be in a situation like this. I know we all at one point or another ask ourselves what we would do in an instance like this. Would you stay home and "bug in", or would you get out of town to predetermined "bug out spot" ( if so how would you get there). When the food runs out and people are breaking into one another's homes looking for something to eat how would you respond?
