should get some thick wood shutters when them woke bastards riot.
As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
I'm always interested in how the always experts are telling people how to survive things, looking for pointers. In every case, I find ways to get myself killed as their ideas of surviving a riot and mine are night and day.
For me, how you survive a riot, is to not be in the riot. In Mexican prisons they riot a few times a year. How Gringos survive prison riots, is they lock themselves in their rented cubicles and let everyone else die.
I never really heard of Troops in an Indian attack, going off to get some coffee or pick some berries as you close the gates and those big shutters and you stay inside, as that is what prepping is all about.
In that, I desire to provide a few pointers. I do not have shutters, as I can not afford them. I have firearms, but really do not want to blow holes in my glass windows as that leaves holes in my windows.
In the photo below, this is not what you do. You put your shutters on the inside, as leaving them outside allows someone to pull them off and gets you killed going out trying to shut them in a riot.
If I ever get the donations for this, I will just make plank shutters that fit the window and or door, that I will screw into place with torque screws. Metal is lovely if you can afford it, but it is heavy like plank.
You can like the old western forts have shoot holes in them, but I do not think I want to blow my windows out. This is about surviving a riot, not fighting one. If easy access is done away with, then the mob moves on to the easier homes. Let the storm pass over you.
I would imagine that in time, you might like shoot slits in your window shutters, but this is about being the mouse that hides and lets the shit storm flow down the street, as let us face it, most of you in your locations are not close to the Walmart urban development centers which attract the mobs. Most of you would suffice to park your neighbor's cars (as you are not stupid enough to park yours in blocking the street) or their travel trailers and boats to form barricades and that is about all it will take to keep the green car rioters from venturing near your dwelling.
After the windows, the weak point in your home is the roof, as the mob will learn fast enough to make Molotovs to throw on your roof to light it up. As metal and tile are prevailing, that does not burn, just understand you will probably need a garden hose to hose things down, after you shoo away the rioters if they find attraction to your house. Odds are they will have been shooed away before, so they will not be looking for hard places to attack.
As I doubt I will get the donations, my emergency shutters will be plywood or chip board, layered. Yes if I wanted to get fancy panties about it, I could separate two sheets, add sand or dirt and use that as a bullet stop, but that would be heavy and have to be done when it was mounted. Same with newspapers in between as they stop bullets, better than you.
As for Festus, yes metal bars or grating work great too. Is wonderful to help protect windows from flying trash cans and bricks on the outside and is one more layer of defense to speak to the mob.
A sign speaks to the mob too. Something like this when the police are gone.
You want to use Nigger Green as your government spent allot of money studying what colours primates can see in low light and even colour blind people can see Nigger Green. It is why highway crews wear Nigger Green.
If you have lot of beaners, then something lingual will be necessary with the pictures.
For the long haulers looking to survive, again one mirrors the military. It is allot of work, but I would fill sandbags allot higher than this, as a wall about as tall as me by all my doors, garage included, and that you can leave shoot holes in on the top to poke your barrel through.
For windows, I would dress them up with farm barbwire or razor wire on the outside. Nothing this elaborate unless you have been stealing from me on donations. Just some T posts wired up, further than reaching distance out in front of each window. Because this is anti mob you are dealing with. You get too elaborate and some genius is just going to sit on their ass until you step outside to check if you have to spray the weeds in the lawn and they will just plug you then, and when the people who pretend they like come screeching out, they will plug them too.
See it is different in surviving the riot, and surviving the shifty shit that lives after drinking shit sewage water.
Anyway, my thinking on surviving a riot is a bit different than the experts.
Nuff Said.
