I liked the setup with the pool. I wouldn't mind trying that even if it wasn't for emergency preparedness. It is a good utilization of resources.

Do the Phoenix folks think that a few handguns will keep the screaming masses from taking all their stuff? No such luck. Your best bet is to get out of dodge when you can and lay low.

It's pretty likely they have made preparations that they have not advertised in addition to the ones they have. On the Big Day they may run out to the front yard and, say, put in place a predetermined pattern of claymore mines. I'm sure there are places to obtain black market force multipliers of that variety.
