I think one of the issues that needs to be addressed as I read some of the posts is that holing up in one location, standing your ground, etc. is a very bad idea from an operational standpoint. .....unless you are in some kind of concrete bomb shelter. To survive you need to constantly be on the move and quick to adapt to ever-changing forces and tactics. In an offensive situation, if you have the opportunity to eliminate a threat at long range, as soon as you make the shot you're going to be targeted from that moment forward. If you have a spotter that can make effective hits from that distance you may be able to maintain your position for a while, but not indefinitely. Holding your ground mentality is a good way to get yourself killed.
Possibly, but trying to remain mobile with small children isn't really feasible either. If you're on your own, or with other able-bodied adults, then staying on the move might work for you. I don't see a scenario where bugging out with my wife and eighteen month old son has a happy ending. Probably best for us to hunker down and fortify as best we can.
