Your post is very true, specially the last paragraph. I FIRMLY believe everyone "Bugging Out" should have a firearm. But I just as strongly believe the use of that firearm FOR DEFENSE/OFFENSE, should be ONLY a last ditch, I'm gonna die If I don't shoot situation. It is Far better to remain unseen and bypass "Their friends" to come a running!

BE the RABBIT (or Gazelle) NOT the lion.
