Or, these days, someone does something on purpose. I have friends in NC that couldnt buy gas for a week last year because of riots. Thankfully, they are preppers and had food stored up!

Whaaaa? Localized riots in Charlotte?
Are you sure it wasn't because of the gas line explosion?

Nope, roads were blocked by protesters.

I don't remember that causing problems for people getting gas.
I do remember that gas was out for a week for the pipeline issues.

There is no way road blocking in Durham on one road would have prevented anyone from getting gas anywhere for week.

I'm gonna have to get a news article link.

They live somewhere in NC, I never stated where. I have no reason not to believe them, and the logic still stands that sometimes events are man-made so you better have your preps done before it happens.

Well, not arguing with your overall reasons for prepping.

I apparently missed out on some huge riot in North Cackalacky and just can't believe it, since I know people from Murphy to Manteo and places in between.
