If you are one of the decent poor bastards stuck in that walmart while this is happening, what do you do ?  

For me, i would run towards the back room and find a exit far away from them.  Most of us would be like a glow in the dark target if they started to get more violent after the food runs out.  

No point in grabbing your gun, or opening up the cabinets in the sporting good section. Sure you can take a few, but like a hoard of zombies, you better have a plan to run, and run fast...   You aren't going to be able to shoot all 300 of them.  

Might be a good chance they will take off after a few shots, but a majority might get in the mood for shredded white meat also.


While I live in a somewhat rural area, I have given this some thought.  I believe you have the right idea and that is to get away, cut fence, haul tail out of there.  Fire door, recieving door, wherever you can exit away from the crowd and just keep going.  Anyone preventing escape would have to be seen as a direct threat to your life.  Should it come to it hopefully a limited number or rounds fired would have a result much like the internet cafe and the attackers would be running each over on the way out.

This will get worse, someone or many will get hurt, probably killed.  At what point does it get reported in the MSM?  A family of four beaten, raped, and drug through the store?  Not likely.  When someone with a CCW is pinned in a corner and has to fight for their very life and a number of attackers are shot?  Yeah, that's about when it will be covered and not in a positive light.

Imagine a scene like that, only bigger and happening everywhere in or near big cities. When 300 could enter a store and just do whatever they want, think of twice or three times that many.

This is why you could never cut off "services".
We are a nation held hostage by those we have tried to help by giving and giving.

I'm not saying all or even part of this crowd are on "entitlements", but a combination of this and the LA riots is exactly the type of scene that would play out.


naah, that shit starts happening, i start carrying my AR pistol and a couple hundred rounds of ammo when i go shopping.

I have 4 toddlers.  If they're with me, there's little chance I'm getting out quickly.  If I had to shoot, I hope that with the first shot they all run off. ***ETA - the scumbags, not my kids.

That's not a flash mob. A flash mob shows up in a park and does the Macarena in unison. That is just a large group of looting thugs.

Also, IBTL on some of the comments made.

Watch some footage of the LA riots. There was nothing remotely resembling shopping going on and no law abiding citizen standing on line waiting for a cashier when that was going on. There will be no shopping.
It wouldn't take much to shut a store down. The video posted shows just that. It wouldn't take long to empty even a large store out with a few hundred people. The LA riots taught us that.
Things can go from bad to worse very fast. The stores in more urban environments just need the right semi organized spark to set things off.

I couldn't tell. Was that the same Flash Mob that sang the Hallelujah Chorus in the food court?

Looked slightly different for some reason.



Didn't look like the flash mob band that played Sousa on the 4th on Cape Cod a few years ago.

Somehow something's different. I just can't put my finger on it.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -                
Flash mobs are known across the United Stats as a group of people, dancing, having fun and enjoying themselves while entertaining others.

However, the Wal-Mart off Lem Turner Road in Jacksonville fell victim to a flash robbery when more than 300 people entered the store and destroyed the security system as well as some merchandise.

What exactly makes this a flash mob and not organized crime?  The fact that they are "members of a certain demographic" that we can't disparage do to the fact that, invariably, "they di'nt do nuffin"?
