What It’s Really Like to Live in a City Under Siege
Note: This following articles is an excerpt from Selco’s best-selling book, The Dark Secrets of SHTF Survival. To read more of this sobering reality check, you can get it in PDF for $5.49 or in paperback for $17.99.
When the SHTF, there might not be army outside shooting at you, but there might be gangs who prey on you to get your supplies. Being under siege feels like someone takes the ground away you walked on.

Nothing is like it was before. When you defend your home, you need to have a mindset change. Home is not a cozy secure place anymore. Home is the place you chose to defend yourself and loved ones. You will feel very different about the place you used as a defensive base forever.

To stay protected or to try to protect against firing and shelling required some skill, knowledge and in a lot of the times good luck.

why not to live in a Major City

Assuming you have access to water and guns, the city could be safer. I lived in a 33 story building on the 19th floor. My walls were concrete bricks. My front door was made of metal and had 3 locks. There was no way in except through the door unless someone was bold enough to repel from the roof into the windows.

Someone with enough food and water for a year will outlast any one in the countryside assuming you have gangs roaming the countryside.

I just bought the book ..been a follower of the author for years.... This was a civil war ...Mortars were reigning terror in the entire city ... Every building was damaged in some manner .All the wood buildings were burnt to the ground .

One thing has jumped out at me ...Selco said all your rights are guaranteed by the government. ... Thus in one day ALL your rights could vanish... every single one .. They are that fragile.

All of our rights are protected by the government. If the government fails, we are free to protect them ourselves. They are granted by no one.

Protected from the government.

Otherwise, completely agree.

Nothing a few gallons of petrol can't fix

Fire . . . ?

If they put gasoline under the door.
