Do you know what a EMP device set off over Kansas will bring?

Go ahead...walk to the next state..and the next one..and the next one.


g You don't think Mexico would invade when that happened?
So long, SoCal!


Actually...No, they wouldnt. Their power would be gone as well, at
least in their northern states.


"We walked 1000 miles already and to stay here would be death, so why
not continue over an unenforced border and take the goods off the
wealthy Americans? Let's go." they'd say.


Million of people will be dead inside of 6 months, and then winter
will hit, and millions more will simply..freeze to death.


You misspelled "hundred million" there, mon. Between people dying
from running out of their meds, starving with no food, dying when
others take the little food they have, running out of water,
dysentery, etc, that figure would happen within a month of an EMP
burst which killed the entire grid. It's amazing how quickly
supposedly civilized people revert to primitives, given the reactions
during Katrina and other bad storms. Most of the real bad news wasn't
broadcast.


True enough. It largely depends on if it happens in summer or winter.
Winter...hundred million will indeed die. They will race to see if
they starve to death or freeze to death first.


I'm not sure how much seasonal changes would affect that. Dry summers
and cold winters might be equally bad for survival of the unfittest.
