Standing Your Ground Prepping

Some of those who choose to have a bug in option as their plan A find they sometimes feel like the outcast within the prepping circles. They are called naïve by some, stubborn, and trapped by others. My personal stance is that if the SHTF event we are discussing is one that I can’t pack up and run away from then I am staying right here. I have always felt this way long before age and health became factors in my decision.

I know this area better than any outsider can, I know where the resources are and the best way to get to them undetected if necessary. I know where my self-defense weaknesses are, I know many of the people and what their skills, strengths, past behavior, and abilities are. My supplies are here (far more than my bug out bag can hold) and most importantly my family knows this is the place they can always come home too. I do have a bug out bag if I must leave on foot, a bug out bag for if I am able to drive out, a get home bag, and even an accident bag in the vehicle. I am by no means naïve.

As I talk to and chat with many other preppers, I quite often find that they too are secretly planning to hunker down and we are not the minority it is assumed that we are. There are many of us that plan on standing our ground.

The featured article speaks about bugging in as the primary plan and even if your first plan is to bug out just as those that plan to bug in you must realize that may not always be possible with different kinds of disasters and you should have a secondary bug in plan.
