Why should I let you through the checkpoint?

Am a physician - both western medicine and tcm (traditional chinese medicine.

Skilled in martial arts

not being keen on crowds or crowded places would only stick around long enough to treat any wounded and would stay outside of compound.
I prefer to stay mobile and assist where needed.

Society caused this mess, I don't think I would want to join a new one. In your scenario, I see the elitism already starting. I would probably try to get a few guys to come 1%er hunting with me.

I have some 1% biker friends, I'm gonna ask the president of the local Vagos club what he thinks about all this 1% stuff...He will smile and say, "wannabes"... I will point out that the financial 1% has caused more death and destruction than every bike club combined...That'll make him think...

I'm with DragonTattooz. To survive in your scenario, you need trust. There's no trust among stangers. Never will be. You'd be better off as the lone wolf well armed or runnin' with a few 1%ers (bikers). I'd perfer roughing it out with a few1%er brothers. I'm seriously ready should something like this ever happen. By the way, if we stumpled across your compound and you didn't donate some fuel, food, and water to us.....guaranteed we'd get all the fuel, food, water, and much more,including your women, then we'd move on. So, if you were smart ,you'd keep a supply of stuff to give out to desperate strangers. You trust we'd leave empty handed ? LOL.....great thread my friend.

I don't have any specific skill. I'm 20 after all. I will pass the word around of your community to anyone I happen to meet along my journey however.

Good luck lads.

I can see you haven't spent a lot of time with people with Downs' Syndrome. I have.

They are VERY good at simple (in my mind, "dull") tasks ... like chopping wood, spinning yarn, weeding, weaving, etc, etc. They need training and supervising but I'd rather have them around as our caretakers than have the high skill people running menial tasks.

haha okay you got me there. I do understand tat if it comes down to it some cute girls will be able to survive.

But alot of them are gonna die off, i am sure you can think of a few girls you know that would die off.

Also when I made my first comment about the hotties running around, it was meant on the small community that was being established, and in a small community like that what are the odds of more than one or two girls there being cute.

Also exessively thin girls will die from malnutrition... not that being thin makes u cute, but it will reduce the amount of supermodels and actresses running around.

Bikers are easy to deal with. If one gang attacks, make a donation to a bigger one. My uncle was the founder of one of the largest bike clubs in the southeast. I'd rather donate to them than you. Good luck with those guys.

We'll probably all lose weight. Being thin doesn't always mean you're going to die. When I was living in my first apartment, I lived on one candy bar a day for 6 months.

classy...

Foreign invasion scenario.

We are members of _______ militia. We are running operations against the opposition and have exceeded our area of operations. We would like to bed down here for the evening so that we can carry on fresh in the morning. We can offer you medical aid from our 11B and we can work into your guard rotation. We are taking it to them to keep it away from safe havens such as yourselves.

With that mindset, I wonder, would you start with the guards at the gates?

Every community needs a jester or drunk, to keep morale high.

My persuasive "happy-go-lucky" charms would have your guards begging me to join this little village..(or have me shot)

I dance a good dance:

I'm also a Two-Time 'Risk' Champion......So morale stays high once more, by playing board games with people.

Give a mouse a cookie and it will ask for a glass of milk.

Mod intervention in 3...2...1...

I am an art teacher, an artist and a hell of a cook. I am trained in conflict resolution (middle school teacher) and have lived the kind of life that rivals the Dos Equis guy. Starting a new society will require Art, else what is society good for?

Ever read Lord Of The Flies?

Yeah, if S ever hit the fan, I would rather be on my own. Live on my own, die on my own. I don't want to get back into a violent society that feels the need to protect it self with armed guards and other such nonsense anyway.

SO, yeah I will just walk right on past your little violent society that feels the need to keep people out with guns.

And don't reply with some nonsense about the possibility of me being eaten by reptilians. This is reality.

So my answer, I would walk right past your little camp simply because I don't want to be a part of any group that feels the need to keep people out, using violence and weapons.

Weapons and guns are a tool. Hunting for food, for example, is what they should be used for. Not for killing each other.... Which would most likely be the cause of any kind of STHF scenario... War..

So, I will let you fight amongst yourselves about who has the power and will let you guys destroy yourselves. It's history and history repeats it self.... So, I will not repeat history myself. I will go a different route and try to survive on my own...

Again, don't reply to me with nonsense about you having a perfect utopian society behind those gates..IF that were true, you would not need guns to keep people out... and don't jabber on about some other nonsense involving me getting eaten by aliens....

This is reality and if S ever hits the fan, I am on my own.

Peace and love... Good luck with your society that feels the need to point guns at passer by's. and I hope for your sake the people don't start fighting amongst themselves over power, just like we do now. Because at the first sign of a fight... You just watch as everyone starts pulling weapons on each other.... You just watch your little camp start breaking down and collapsing into a bloody mess.

Like I said, ever read Lord Of The Flies?

If SHTF happens, I am through with people and through with the violence of society. I am on my own.

Good luck
