As I explained we are pretty isolated from the masses. We wouldn't have to eat them. Our post office serves 130 people. That is every man, woman, and child within a 15 or 20 mile radius. Those people probably own 4,000 head of cattle. Eating wont be an issue. There would most certainly be other problems to solve. But we wont starve.
Good luck
Dave it won't take long for migration out of the cities.
True. But which runs out first groceries or gas? When the stores run out of food they will burn up what little gas there is running in circles. When that happens how far will they have the ability to go. How many of those urban dwellers would be able to walk 10-15-20 miles a day for a couple weeks or a month? How many calories does that kind of hike burn up? Some areas have a lot of urban people within a day or two walk. Those are the areas where people will have to fight to keep their food.
Robins are protected under the migratory bird law, so it is illegal to kill them. You will have to stick to coon and rabbit since they are legal to kill.
That is the direction of the Long Term prevailing upper level wind for most of CONUS. It's the upper level winds that will spread the fallout from the mushroom cloud. (If the device is an airburst, there won't be near as much fallout.)
The scary thing is that with this skirmish it has become a reality that we need to know this.
I obviously have no idea what is under a lot of those dots. But that one on the Washington / Oregon border is most likely wrong. The Seattle and lower Puget Sound is very likely a target. Boeing, the ship yards at Bremerton, Fort Lewis, and McCord AFB are all in that area. The spot they show is basically Portland. Not a military target. The other dot is is probably Hanford nucular reactors which is further north than that dot shows.
If people are hunger enough to be eating Robins do you think they will care migratory bird laws?
Not me, I'm going to become a cannibal before anyone else does hopefully
None of us have seen how this would play out in reality. Huge difference between a hurricane coming on shore that has been all over the news for 2 weeks and the economy collapsing with no food in the stores. In the case of a hurricane they are fleeing away from it. Pretty much one direction to go to get away from the hurricane. Which way do you go searching for food when you can go any direction on the compass? Yes you can go a ways on a full tank of gas. But before you light out to points unknown how much of that gas will be spent driving here and there searching for food. Remember there is no reason to flee like there is in a hurricane. You just have to find food. How many would jump on the freeway and drive 300+ miles to a county which only has 2 grocery stores? And an area where it is easily 30 or 40 miles between gas stations. I am sure that some would end up here but not the masses.
Robins used to be (in my time) pretty common for folks to eat. At least people who lived in the country.
You don't eat robin . You don't eat people and you think folks aint going to head for the hills. .....I give you a week Dave....at least tell me your house isn't visible from the road..
Those 'spots' are not targets. They are wind indicators. They indicate which direction the upper level fallout from targets to the east of them may go.
Ain't nothing in the woods illegal when it comes to eatin including Ivory Bill Woodpecker.
You can go in any direction except directly toward it. On the Texas coast, you can't take any route in the Eastern quadrant but you can travel due South, SSW, SW, West, WNW, NW, North and the farther North you get you can then turn NNE, NE or East and miss the storm.
