Just remember, Rambo, there are plenty of trained soldiers that won't share your "kill a 3 year old and their family for an apple" mentality.

The lynching squad coming for you will have some of them in it... are you honestly saying you think you are the best of the best and there is literally no other person (or group of people in this case) in the world that could take you? I'm not trying to say you're weak or that you wouldn't be able to take down most sieges on your property, but you're delusional if you actually think you're as invincible as you sound like you think you are.

A trained soldier with a properly sighted .50 cal can and will take out any number of targets if given enough time. Lets use your logic:

So theres other military types that dont share my views, that cool, but theres a severe difference between a grunt and someone trained in long kill shots. No serviceman anywhere...shit, no group of 50 serviceman complete with M-16's and full garb would even volunteer to hunt down a fellow serviceman who has been trained by the US in the use of a .50 cal.

Why? Because as Ive stated numerous times, it isnt worth their trouble. I will kill half of them before they even got into range with their pea shooters. Do you think that a group of people faced with starving and deplorable conditions would hunt down a trained killer of complete strangers as some show of greater good!?

Ya gotta quit it with the rose colored glasses man. Lemme ask you...say someone was doing exactly what I propose to neighbors of yours. The LEO's come to you and ask you if you'll volunteer to track this trained killer down. Would your response be to grab a gun and help? Not a chance in hell because self preservation will take over.

Im not Rambo in the generic sense, but when it comes to WAR, 99.99999999999% of you would piss in your pants spending just a week in Afghanistan. Partially due to movies and video games making death and war look like fun, partially due to the fact most American think they are tough when in fact, they most certainly are not.

You knkw nothing of war. You've never came across an open grave of civvies while driving point on a routine patrol. You've never been in a line of humvees which came under attack from all sides at once and had to make cognitive decisions regarding life and death decisions.

I could go on and on, but my point here is that very very few of you will be able to even think clearly when bullets are flying let alone be able to send some stupid lynching party against a person who has faced war and seen death.

Doesnt mean I think none of you will survive, but when pitted against someone like me...you wouldn't survive a second because theres no hesitation when training takes over.

I tire of your bravado, kiddo. You win.

You're the baddest meanest best shootin'est Rambo of them all. Ever. Fifty Brazillion Trillion Million similarly trained soldiers could march on you in the dead of the night during a blizzard and you would single handedly pick off each and every one of them from 1000 yards out. You will never be matched by mere mortals and people who even question you should be put against the wall and shot.


See how stupid that sounds? That's how you are coming off to people.


Seriously, you are the kind of douchetastic prepper that the OP was talking about. We're done. I'd say 'see you on the other side', but I'm sure you'd take me out from 5000 yards just because you're that awesome. Keep keeping on you most awesomest, most ass-kickingest, greatest in the world motherfucker!!

Lol...those who cannot attack the thought instead attack the thinker.

I didnt know we were even debating. Its you that sounds silly. Walk a mile for a second:

On one hand, you have a person trained to kill with a powerful weapon. Someone who has been in an actual firefight where actual people are actually trying to KILL them. Someone who has been traind on how to defend their position using all kinds of IED's and chemical based explosives.
On the other hand, you have an accountant. Trained in the use of tax law and calculators and zero training on using any weapon. Hes out of shape and hasnt prepped so much as a can of beans.

Tell me sir...which person do you think will survive? What do you think that accountant will do once his bladder releases at the sight of the holes Im making in his house with a .50 cal? Will he form a lynching party against the crazy fuck with his .50 cal or will he beg for his life and give me whatever I want? How about when i catch his rug rat outside and put that same barrel against their head? Will he be thinking about lynching me or will he shit his pants and give me what I want?

Jesus H man...now figure this out:

Give or take...we have about one million active service members right now out of a total of roughly 400 million civvies. In fact...most communities across the nation dont have a single person in the armed forces. That leaves a million trained people to cover the 70 million sq miles in the US. Thats one million sq miles EACH would have to cover. When put into simple numbers, your logic of lynching squads is poppycock at best.

Most trained soldiers are overseas anyway. If tshtf right this moment, there'd be very few of these servicemen to run around lynching. And ma/pa civvy just wouldn't have the testicular fortitude to put up any offense at the onset of a Earth shattering disaster.
We can disagree, but don't be so condescending because deep down, you yourself know you wouldn't be one of those civvies tryina kill a soldier with a gun that has 10x the range...thats just silly talk.
 Quoting: Iamtheone

Considering the cost and weight of .50 cal ammo, you won't be very mobile or you will not have a lot of ammo.

Unlike the Government's unlimited supply.
Without a spotter you will be at a disadvantage also.

Now when you go out to retrieve your spoils, your the target. So much for the Lone Wolf Thing.

Just because you and 15 buddies held off the enemy, doing that alone is another matter.

So you think you are bad? Good, overconfidence will get you killed or did you forget that training?
Never, never, underestimate your enemy.
