With massive layoffs and some people heavy burdened in debt w/ no money for groceries how long till we see people going out and shooting big game to feed the family? Was at the local gun shop and a farmer rolled in and walked out with 1500 rounds of .223, case of buckshot and new shotgun. He's was concerned his cattle may become a target and was gonna kill any trespassers. Getting real out there folks.

Bear season is coming up soon. No real need to poach if you want to fill a freezer.

Maybe the urban parks are going to see a decline in pigeons and geese though :)
 
After the crash in fall 2008, it was the winter 2009/10 when I saw what I consider the signs.

You can tell things are tough when dogs and cats start disappearing. :) Mother told me about dining on Doberman in immediate post war Germany. Of course the lady that fed her didn't tell her what she was eating.

I have never really had a problem with hearing gunshots at night when I knew that food was being put on the table by someone who could not go to the store and buy it. I have found lots of coyote kill sites in the past. I guess they could not go to the store either.

My father told me about eating roof rabbits when meat was scarce when they ended up in Russian held east Germany after the war, I asked him what roof rabbits were? He laughed and said cats, they ate anything they could trap, snare or steal from the Russian’s from what he said.
 
I am looking forward to hunting traditionally. I'll skip the 6 year wait and drop this huge bull moose I've been watchin. Keep my priority points active for when I revert back to a settler.

I get a kick out of us in the west. We get a virus that kills 1% or less of victims that actually get it, and people stock up on guns, liquor, and toilet paper and talk every man for themselves. The power isn’t even out yet for Christ’s sakes. Send a hurricane to the southern states and looters go wild and martial law in the streets.

Meanwhile Japan gets a tsunami that utterly destroys a region and people work together in an orderly and cohesive manner to save each other and move forward. This is a test run for the real thing, call me optimistic but I think we’ll come out of this better not worse.

It’s going to take work, financial prudence, and common sense not guns. Those who think they’ll be mad max come summer are in for bitter disappointment and some of the statements I’m seeing won’t age well.
