Recently, one video in particular caught my attention. It’s about the types of people you’ll want to steer clear of after a widespread disaster or during a grid-down scenario. If you encounter any of these types of people after the SHTF, there’s a good chance they will attack you and try to steal your supplies.

Here’s his list:

  1. Unstable
  2. Addicts
  3. Criminals
  4. Unprepared
  5. Government

Watch the video below to hear his comments on these types of people and how to deal with them.

    For the person who said avoid all religious people, I do hope the Amish avoid you. They will probably still be kind even with your attitude. Luckily my farm is bordered by Amish farms and in the middle of nowhere so we should hopefully not be near most of the types mentioned.

    Wow, I see people posting here that are also the “TYPE” I want to avoid, those who either panic or judge without assessing the situation. My aspect is to be suspicious of everyone until confirmed they are worthy of my trust, as in “better safe than sorry”. To accomplish this I prefer the “gray man” technics of just blending in without divulging anything (resources, skills, knowledge / intel) until trust is established. And no, and I mean NO ONE, automatically gains trust by affiliation with any group or “type”. Trust is earned, and guarded jealously.

    PS: I’m a retired veteran and currently a “government employee” and I wouldn’t trust those I work with anymore than anyone else unless they meet the standards I set. When SHTF they will be sorted by their actions – we shall see.

    I just wanted to add my 2 cents to this comment “Not a single person that I’ve ever met that truly knows Jesus would ever do such a thing.”

    I’m sorry but I can’t agree, and here’s why. In Ukraine I ended up with giardia from some bad food. Giardia is parasites that eat all of your food before you get to. Before I realized what I had, I felt like I was dying of hunger. I had never felt like I was starving before, and would have done anything to have those pangs sated. It developed in me a deep understanding and compassion for people who are starving.

    What I am alluding to with that, is that yes, your Christian brothers and sisters are going to go off the rails when they are starving to death, and they will do literally anything to fix it, including dispatch you. You don’t have to agree, but if you haven’t felt that type of hunger, it would be foolish and ignorant to disagree. Take care.

    When SHTF everything will be in turmoil and confusion will be at a all time high. Its unfortunate that each of us will be forced to make split second decisions, even life or death, sadly mistakes will be made. A thug is a thug, but youll never see them coming. Keep your wits, eyes, and ears open. Police will be taking care of they’re own, youre not a priority. Stay armed and if possible dont back down…you’ll be a bigger target if you do. I live near 2 hugh low income aptms…you can only imagine what will happen.

    Addicts even when they are clean still have the attitude that what they want is more important than anyone else.

      There is a difference between being clean, and being sober. The sober addicts I know are more trustworthy than any of the normies I know. Your ignorant comment aside, I hope you someday have to rely on a sober addict. They may or may not help you, but if they don’t it won’t be because they’re an addict. It will be because either they can’t afford it, or because you are just as much of a jerk as you seem to be.

        My sentiments exacly.! I Worked with alcoholics and drug addicts. When they got sober,they were better more honest people than the average person. Just saying.

    I will add to the list “Bible Thumpers” and any other super religious group. These are the type of people who will take you supplies and kill you because “God” told them it was right. They are down right dangerous. If you do “believe” like they do you are OK to kill.

      That’s completely not true. That’s against everything we believe in. I’m a pastor Dude. Not a single person that I’ve ever met that truly knows Jesus would ever do such a thing. God has spoken through the Bible exclusively. He does speak directly to people and never in contradiction to His Holy Word. Nothing to fear from us Christians. We just might be the most prepared. Most giving people you’ll ever meet. I’m sorry you got a wrong impression of us. If someone misrepresented Christianity to you i apologize on their behalf.

        Not everyone no, but where I live a ton of them already talk like the crazies described.

      Where did you get this idea? Christians are no different than anyone else. Frankly I would trust them more than a nonbeliever, but in a shtf situation I probably wouldn’t trust anyone.

      Religious beliefs have been the cause of slayings since the beginning of time! There are a lot of nut cases out in our world today, unfortunately, it is becoming more of a threat to normal people. With them, on top of those who are already unstable, you’d do well to STAY AWAY from crowds, lines, festivals, concerts, etc. Due to lax laws and lefts liberals, we live in far more danger now all around us!
