Shelter in place is always the first choice. IF that isn't an option ... bug out.
We have our bug out bags ready. Always have had them.
It's better to have all options available then to be caught short.

Not necessarily...I could hold off 30+ attackers at my house right now...Im also extensively trained and well armed...But its not out of the realm of possibility for the average family man to protect his home if he pre plans.
As far as the wrapping the house with warning labels, thats only in the case of complete government shutdown...Marauders wont waste time and resources messing with your house if they think everything inside is contaminated...Of course this would work in a "Book of Eli" kind of darkages...
If you know how to set ambushes and tactical withdrawals you could engage a large group by yourself several times over...at least until enough of them are dead that they scatteredit on 12-11-2010 by BingeBob because: oops spelling

30+ attackers being kids and emo girls right?
Sorry I don't mean you to take this as a personal insult, but you're not Wolverine, and you're not Rambo, this is Real Life and not a movie. There's no way anyone can hold off 30+ armed and trained attackers (trained as in have killed, such as Hells Angels or a group of criminals) unless their lawn is riddled with landmines. The 1 second you show your face through a peek hole, will earn you a bullet straight into your skull.
Leave, period... Hide, be a ghost... come back after the dust has settled. Then if your cache was hidden well enough, you can start with that. But don't preach about bunkering up being the only fool-proof way, because it isn't, this has been proven in war ridden countries around the world.
