I've a bad feeling about the 20th. Asked the wife to cancel her business travel. We are headed to our country place.

Getting out of Houston and loading up. Glock .45 is standard in my truck. Adding my AR which hasn't been fired in 4-5 years.

Anyone else bugging out for a couple days?

Think we will be safe here in Texas. Business as usual for me.

That's why I asked the wife not to fly. Don't need her in another city if they shut airports.

Am I missing something? Why would "they" shut airports?

Attack on the airline's computer systems, bombing of a plane, etc. where who you on 9-11?

I've been in the **** with bullets flying and my spidey senses kept my head down. My intuition is usually pretty damn good.

Either way a good reason to get the wife to the country which isn't always her favorite thing.

I'm working in the ER that day. But it's ok. There are no weapons allowed the hospital so I'll be safe.
The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But, it's still on the list.

Same as any other day. If it feels like a sporting day then may stick a carbine under the seat.

To keep the man out of the office they have tried multiple times to put him in prison. They fixed an election. They tried to bankrupt him. Tried two assassination attempts.

Somehow I don't think they are now deciding to lay down. I hope I'm wrong of course.

Knew a guy who was a big time hand-wringer. Left the Houston area and moved to Colorado, uprooting his wife and kids, his sister, his mother and a couple others all out of fear that bombs or rockets would hit the area because of all the refineries. That was like 25 years ago now.

Relax and calm down. You are letting it all go to your head. Take a deep breath, go for walk outside, log off of social media, and recognize that you are letting fear take over.

So you're worried about something happening in DC and it having a catastrophic effect in Texas the same day??
That would be something apocalyptic like nuclear war.

And if you're that worried better go fire your AR ahead of time to make sure it works since it's been 4-5 years since you last shot it.

The stuff you're worried about could happen ANY day so you need to be prepared all the time!

Did your Spidey sense pick up on 9-11 or the assassination attempt on trump? Or what about when clocks turned to 2000?
You missed all those....weren't prepped...and nothing happened.

If they were going to do something, it would probably be before the 20th. They want to stop him from getting to that day. I doubt that day will be the day it pops off.

Trust your gut. Worse case is you had some nice time in the country.

If you haven't fired your AR in 4-5 years should consider shooting more and maybe taking a carbine course. Sheepdog also offers some couple defense courses.

You should be prepared every day.

Yup. Ill be carrying the same things I do most days.

You dont have a crystal ball. If you're going to be one of the unlucky few every day who encounter bad luck or true evil, you're not going to have a bad feeling or premonition about it that morning.

Leave the astrology stuff to the white girls with dreadlocks.

I just don't enjoy shooting that loud ass thing anymore. I like the bolt action .308 way more for a day of shooting.

But you know, multiple 30 and 20 round mags.

Its also not unreasonable to be aware of what other people are up to.

I dont think you need to roll heavy because you're going to have to shoot it out with a they/them trying to overthrow the govt, but there are protests planned for Jan 20th.

So if you live in an area that smells like cat ladies, probably worth planning alternate routes around traffic jams.

I hardly call that rolling heavy, it's not like I'm posting up with the Barrett .50 cal.

Maybe my wording was wrong, I'm an old man. But I do find it odd that people think it strange to listen to your gut, intuition whatever. Mines not perfect but it has helped me many times.

Also good chance to get the burn pile taken care of.

I'm not saying "dont listen to your gut".

I'm saying "carry and be prepared every day whether your gut tells you to or not".

If you dont think its a good idea to travel on the 20th, dont. I was just agreeing with suburban cowboy on being prepared any day.

You sure backpedal pretty fast. That may help you in a shtf situation.

You went from "I'm gonna be extra locked and loaded, tell my wife to cancel business plans, what if they completely shut down air travel, this will be a 9/11 event" to "oh well… I mean, I really just need to get out to the land and do some chores."

You know what. Trust your gut. I'm sure all of us has had a premonition or two that turned out to be a good thing we listened.
It's your life. You do what you feel best. Your gut feel may be protecting you from something totally different than what you think.
And get you a suppressor for your AR so you can enjoy shooting it.
