Take every one of the whiny "guns kill people" crybabies and scratch them off the list to start. If you were born and raised in the city, you're probably the next to go. The vast majority of the population would be completely fucked. In the cities you'd have organized gangs of criminals running absolutely everything. The rest would pour out into the countryside where they would most likely starve. Even in the rural areas most people these days have no concept of survival or what i takes to live off the land.

Obviously I have no intention of disappearing into the bush as is, I'm comfy in my softened lifestyle. however, if it were to come to that point, I like to think I'm fairly prepared to up and disappear into the mountains should I have to.
