No, idiot. I rely on Jesus to *save* my *****.....

Are you relying on your government to save your *****? Fool.

If it weren't so true, your post would be funny.

When disaster struck in Lousiana, there were search and rescue teams
from Vancouver, British Columbia, two days before any US local, State
or Federal aid arrived on the scene. Chernoff wasn't even aware what
happened yet, and Brownie said he didn't know what was going on,
and Bush was in San Diego at Party fund raisers, and VP Cheney was
still sitting on the porch at his vacation ranch in Wyoming, scratching
his balls.

At least a dozen countries had medical and rescue teams ready to go
and as many other countries, including Indonesia promised aid. Even
friggin Sri Lanka offered financial assistance. All these two days
before
the US Feds did a damn thing.

Where's the money going into their budget been going? Anyone know?

"If there is a nuclear attack in my city I'm screwed. Simple really"

The only true sensible answer in the thread.

There is no point in any 'defence tactics' for the population. Anyone
with ideas of survival have been watching too many films.

Those that don't die from the initial attack, will die from the
after-effects of both radiation and ecological unbalance. The only
certain thing is that mankind will no longer exist.

Perhaps that isn't a bad thing. Whatever replaces us in x billion years
time, may not have the 'John Wayne' syndrome.

It would be far more pleasant to die immediately than to suffer a hideous,
lingering death from radiation sickness.

Way back when I was a kid, we used to have these nuclear bomb drills ...
not the duck and cover ones (although we had those, too). They'd bring
us all into the auditorium, and practice evacuations. Supposedly, they
still perform emergency drills in public schools today, as well.

What they ~planned~ was to send all the kids to a 'safe place', a
predetermined evacuation center that hadn't been named (no idea if even
the folks setting up the drills knew where they'd be). What I'm sure the
school administration(s) didn't know was that nearly all the kids planned
on taking off for home on foot if there was ever a real emergency. Not a
one of us trusted the government to have us and our families sent to the
same place.

Of course, I don't live in a city, and if I did, it wouldn't matter what
the city/state/federal plan was, I'd follow my plan. I'm sure lots of
other people would do that very same thing.

We have a similar emergency plan, but it is focused more on the nearby
reactor and the (unlikely) possibility of a meltdown. Personally, I'd
rather be at "ground zero" in case of either a meltdown or attack. It
would be far more pleasant to die immediately than to suffer a hideous,
lingering death from radiation sickness.

Would you be able to stick to your plan if you had a few homeland
security guns pointed at your head though Woods?
