None of us, no matter how well prepared, will be entirely ready for a SHTF situation. When chaos erupts, it can either be subtle or full-fledged hell. Whatever the case, we need to be ready for any eventuality. We know that seems a contradiction but if you are a well-rounded survivalist or prepper then you are at least halfway there.

We’ve already discussed in other articles how some families may bug-in and others will bug-out. It is your choice but frankly, it is our opinion that you and your family be ready for both!

We love the idea of staying safely at home, away from the madness, but you just never know what will happen to make a bug-out situation necessary. Maybe poison gasses will be leaked into your area, a flood will make staying where you are impossible, or even a natural or not so natural disaster will strike.

Or perhaps, ready to bug out, you discover the way to your bug-out shelter is barred by either the military or a vicious riot.

Again, we just do not know. But what we do know is survival and after the break, there are four tactics a person must know now!
