I think that means that rather than a gradual slide into slavery they are planning to use a quick short event to quickly change the social / political landscape. Maybe a massive food shortage to create a panic and to descrease the population. The half starved survivors would be easier to control, it's hard to resist on an empty stomach.

I guess body armor might be of some help. Each bullet proof vest is about 400.00 each. The helmets are more.

I realize they use standard ammo, I was thinking more of the raw materials incorporated into said ammo.
I don't think anyone is interested in my couple of boxes of 22LR. Unless we get overrun with Gophers and squirrels. The only other ammo I'm concerned about is .303Br which is really hard to find lately.

One thing I worry about is the law that "all children of age must attend school". It is a LAW. If we ran from this or the child wasnt in school they can arrest the parents. That's only if they find us.
It sounds like a "No mercy policy" and allow mercy killing of citizens that resist in any way.
