... I'm supposedly supposed to go there. But since I'm "only" a couple hours from the Canadian border, I often wonder if it would be worth risking my life to attempt an illegal exit/entry through the wilderness.

My take is that, once we hit martial law, America is done with forever -- at least anything resembling an America I'd ever want to live in again. At that point, all the trappings of my "civilized" life -- money, possessions, etc. -- seem to become meaningless.

It's a scene I don't like thinking about, because it makes me horribly uncomfortable.
