If I get a gun, it's only going to have one round for it.

I'm not going to live in that world.

Well that's just stupid.

You probably live in walking distance of people who have survived forced marches, famine and starvation, deaths of family, military oppression and extreme survival situations that they made it through and went on live in the better world that follows.

You literally cannot know what's going to happen a week down the line in any situation, that's why I advocate for stocking up for a few weeks, because that's generally how long major social disruptions last before things either calm down or get worse. Always bet on the better outcome and prepare for the worst. It isn't over until it's over and you have no idea if what happens after death is better or worse. You might stay dead 10^10^10^56 years and suddenly pop back into existence as a kind of sapient bug being slowly digested by a pitcher-plan type life form, or worse. We lived over a half million years as relatively modern primates, and you could have been born as any of of them struggling to survive, you already won the lottery once, why try again.
