and in one thing Shades is correct, that one ought to buy guns and hoard munitions, to keep up with neighbors similarly prepared, as the rule of law, fractally scaled up and down, will certainly breakdown under stress, ala Zimbabwe and Argentina If I were in a crazy place - I would see being a gold bug prudent - for I would certainly want to flee to somewhere nice and pay Mugabe soldiers to let me out of the country with shiny metal if that is all they would take - but see I am already in that NICE place - so if it goes to shit here - its gonna be ugly all over and probably worse everywhere else. My indian friend says with the WILL to kill and steal from another man - you dont need gold, or guns, you already have all you need to survive. I have not seen the first gun come out in walmart or the first knifing - a few folks got trampled at Xmas getting xbox 360 - but I know to avoid the crowds - violence and death is not a day to day concern for me at walmart yet. Chen why would you stay somewhere that in the very near future mohawk guy is coming to rape your wife and you have to do battle with him using guns and bullets? That is crazy my man! Mississipi Masala - An Indian family is expelled from Uganda when Idi Amin takes power. They move to Mississippi and time passes... imdb.com I watched this many years ago - they fled to the USA. You have sold your USA real estate and going to germany eh? Why you think the guns and violence would be less there than here? Chinese farmers may rise up and hundreds of millions go ballistic - iraqi warlords may rise up in a civil war - I still don't see the old 70 year old retirees around me turning off oprah and rising up and shooting me - I did read on your island of tobago though how much kidnapping and murder there is - perhaps that is our difference - you are much closer to the grim reaper than I am.
