  I'm sure their truckloads of ammunition turned out to be quite helpful through this ordeal.

    not the ammunition. The bug out bags, food and water, bed rolls, escape strategies, family emergency plans. Those kinds of things. Yeah ammo and guns is just scary.

      That's bog standard disaster planning these days, being prepared in case it is necessary to evacuate your residence. In the US it's recommended by various agencies. Prepping can probably be reserved for people getting ready for the end of civilized society.

        yeah as a tool useful. Many prepper groups suggest stockpiling for a coming war and also because ammo will be a good currency.

          I wouldn't disagree with them about it being a useful barter item. Never know when that crate of .45-70 Government will come in handy. ;-)
