We need to think strategy. The total screw-up by FEMA means that, after a Trump win, we can arrange community groups for safety, whether natural disasters or bad actors.
Read the second amendment:
“A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
The first part is too often ignored. And the word "militia" is badly misinterpreted.
“To preserve liberty it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them.” - George Mason
I would like to see the National Guard prohibited from being deployed to any foreign territory (this is how they enable their sneaky deployments/wars), and solely focused on defending the land and people of the USA, like the Coast Guard is dedicated to defending our waterways (but they too have gone way beyond their original remit... anyway let's get back ...). National Guards divided by State (this is in place) and with their first priority to defend/support their State. Soldiers will be trained in war, but some aspects of the NG in that State should be trained in Search and Rescue, EMT/Mobile Hospital functions, etc. And not just in support of their own ranks: enough bandwidth to support their State.
Disband FEMA and give that budget to each NG.
All of this needs to be reset. FEMA and indeed all of the Feebs need to have their fangs taken out. Devolution. 10th Amendment. This Federal Government-led model is not working.
I should add that all of these people who are going to NC to help them should be classified as "irregulars" (in the old parlance) by the NG, which is to say welcomed and added to the team, given the ability to call in support/speak on the radio with NG reps dedicated to supporting them, etc.
In short, I am recommending that we go back to the America we had in the 1700s, but with modern tech.

The first part is not ignored by gun grabbers, it's the basis for gun control. If it had been only the second part, there'd be no gun control.
