Thank you for pointing out this article.

My girlfriend is concerned that I'm paranoid. She's an RN, and should really know better...but she hasn't seen what I've seen as a medic.

Andrew was--for me--my big epiphany.

I lost a lot of faith in humanity when I worked down there with the Red Cross.
 
To me, having some ammo to defend what you have worked hard for and to keep your family safe is common sense as well. If shtf I’m willing to bet that most cops would not show up and would take care of their families first, at least for a time.
 
if we want to go through all the licencing procedures and the homes visit, yes, I don't.
i'll stick to my air rifles...for hunting small game.
With no police presence I might reconsider that decision. Right now things are fairly stable and civil, but if anything happens to change that it can become ugly quickly.
 
country people around here are known to sort out there own problems, the head of a family of burglars was hung out of an upstairs window by one leg and told to leave the area, the family left that same day without picking up any of their stuff and were never seen again.
i'm not too concerned about outside influence, we are far enough away from urban settlements, and several hundreds of miles away from any big city.
we have been classified by a doctor no less as "on the edge of everything and in the middle of nowhere".
 
Honestly for me the prepping is what keeps me from being paranoid. Knowing I can handle just about anything Mother Nature can throw at me is a secure feeling. I’m also smart enough to know that no one can be prepared for everything, and that’s where knowledge comes in. Being able to prepare food and filter water without electricity and make a shelter from little to nothing brings a peaceful confidence.
 
I've been called paranoid by people who only prep for short term events( that's if they prep at all) because I concentrate on long term events not minor ones, water off a ducks back as far as I am concerned, i'm not liable to meet any of these people post long term SHTF because they wont be around.
