I'm not so foolish that I think we can completely protect ourselves if things ever got bad. It doesn't have to be a World War either. It's just me, my wife and little kid here. Also my 30 year old daughter and 5 year old grand-daughter nearby. All my other grown children live in Colorado. Regardless of how many guns I've got - I have to sleep sometimes. So - we're basically "sitting ducks." As I see it, best thing is to be low-key, out of sight and not easily found. That's why I built an off-grid cabin in the middle of nowhere we could possible retreat to - IF we could get there. I still cannot understand people with families and income that make zero effort to be prepared for anything. Seems certain groups of Mormons teach self-reliance. It's a Mormon dry-food dealer where we got out long-term storage food products (red wheat and such). They teach that it's a person's duty to attempt to be prepared so not a burden on others when things get tough. Boy is that far off from what US society at large goes by. Nanny government will care for all! What a joke. There are small European countries that have underground shelter and food enough for a full year for all citizens. But here in the once rich USA? Nothing but the illusion of safety - unless you are the President or a member of Congress.
We got hit with a big storm just after a hurricane here last summer. Many people who knew they lived in a flood plain and had NO insurance lost their houses. So, the whining started, FEMA came in and is STILL there (Schoharie County, NY). That is ridiculous. In fact, FEMA is just getting emergency shelters set up now - 6-7 months later. As I see it , if those people haven't fixed their problems by now - they are lost causes.
