Half of America: I'd kill to protect my own

 Via Don

Only 58%? I guess the rest will say come kill me and my family, you know I'm not a violent person........::)

 

Nearly half of Americans would expect serious, sustained life-threatening civil unrest within two weeks of a major catastrophe, such as an EMP attack that would destroy electronics, according to a new poll.

Another huge percentage say they would expect further deterioration after two weeks, but for many, that development would be irrelevant, because they expect they would be dead by then.

The sobering new poll by Wenzel Strategies, a public-opinion research and media consulting company, also shows a stunning number of Americans say they would be willing to kill a neighbor under such circumstances.

The poll, conducted Nov. 28-Dec. 3 with a margin of error of 3.14 percentage points, showed 58 percent of Americans would be somewhat or very willing to kill someone if a member of their family was threatened with attack during an emergency.

But that would be because 50 percent expect that within two weeks of a catastrophic emergency, their home, person or family member would be physically attacked by someone desperate for food, money or commodities like gasoline.

  1. I really believe that even that number is too high. There has been a lot of talk about fantastic gun sale number`s lately . So what . Just because Joe Sixpack has gone to Wal-Mart and bought a semi auto M-4 look alike , that don`t mean he`s got the Cahoonas to actually KILL another man.
