[QUOTE="Okieprepper, post: 2023977, member: 11631"] Unless you have a secondary retreat i.e. private property setup with supplies, you had better plan on bugging-in. You should have a realistic and clear idea of what bugging out really entails. Yet no matter how much we wish to stay at home, there are times when evacuation is the only choice. These generally include events at a higher level than social unrest or bare shelves at the grocery store. As an aware “prepper” you should already have 30 days minimum food stores in your home. FEMA and NASA told there junior and executive staff in 2011 to have 6 months food preparations on hand for the coming "whatever". The costly and dangerous exercise of bugging-out should be reserved for nuclear, chemical or biological events as well as any impending disasters that are likely to destroy your home. Other worthy considerations are gangs overtaking your neighborhood, soldiers in your streets, law enforcement making random entry to nearby homes, out breaks of uncontrollable fires etc. The idea of bugging-out must be well thought out, especially with children. If you head out somewhere that you don't normally belong, then you will likely become an unwelcome guest when you get there. Remember all the "Trespassers will be shot" signs of yester year? And don't be fooled into thinking that all the public hunting land and camp grounds won't already be cover by suspicious and weary locals. So give this idea plenty of thought and consideration.
