This is so much of the internet right now. Everyone wants someone else to do the dirty work. Everyone one agrees that the dirty work needs to be done, but no one is willing to do it.
I don't have the means to make it happen. I'm the rare American that doesn't own any weapons. And I'm positive they wouldn't let me close enough with my baseball bat.
It's America. You should be able to buy a rifle / long gun at your nearest Wal-Mart same day. If you want a pistol, you might have to wait for you background check, but that usually only takes a few days. I also hear single-use short-range firearms can be 3d printed.
I obviously prefer to keep my life without firearms.
I didn't even like carrying a sidearm when I was an Army Medic.
Well, some tasks require particular tools. I suppose you could also get a javelin or a bow and arrows. Possibly at Wal-Mart, but more likely specific sports supply or hunting supply stores.
I've said for at least the past 10 years that I need to train as a bow hunter.
I'm certain the fall of civilization will happen sooner rather than later. I was thinking more of climate disaster... yet, American Civil War has moved into #1.
I'm still betting on climate collapse to be the end of global civilization, tho I don't expect that before 2050.
I don't buy an American civil war, but I can see the federal government effectively collapsing soon, but most states hanging together.
Welcome to the internet
I have been here for a while, that's why I know you have to state the obvious every now and again.
IME, that's life in general. Plenty of people complain more than they work on making things better. That's definitely me these last few weeks.
Even when I was being productive, I'm pretty sure I wasn't doing the "dirty work".
