[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having a gun and not knowing how to use it (which requires more than a couple classes/time at the range) you should absolutely not have a gun.

It's always a good idea to have some extra gas, food, and water.  You never know when a basic natural disaster can hit.  But PP has a good list.  It's more about setting yourself and family up for success in a normal future.  Let's be real, if what happens that they are planning for actually happens, it's not going to matter much.  [b]Where do they plan to go with their "to go bag".[/b]  Unless you have a place not in a major city and are somehow able to get out before it gets bad, you're screwed.

I'm from CA, where earthquakes and fires are regular enough no-notice events that we all keep go kits and emergency supplies ready. Here? If there's political unrest in DC and I have the ability to drive away from it, I'm leaving. If the power's out for an extended amount of time, I'm going to a hotel. If there's fire or flooding, and I can get out, I'd rather not stick around. I'm not planning to bug out to the wilderness or anything. I just don't want to have to pack and prep while possibly panicking.

If you may need to seek shelter elsewhere, having a pre-packed change of clothes, snack, set of meds, etc. ready, along with copies of important documents and a bit of cash, saves you time and trouble. [/quote]
