Why Bug out?

In response to the question posted: What's in your "Bugout bag"? I think it really depends on why you're bugging out... so here's the question:What's the most likely reason for YOU to "Bug out"?Natrual DisasterManmade disaster (not terrorism)Terrorist actCollapse of the economyCollapse of the GovernmentCollapse of societyTotalitarian GovermentInvasion or declared war by foreign governmentWanted by the authorities (!)Need to get away for a whileWife can't cookI like it here, I'm not leaving

I went for natural disaster, since hurricane is the most likely scenario. That being said, I've yet to actually bug out.

I'm curious. Just how old is this Ladd? He seems to not have lived a lot of life. Hard lessons may be ahead. If you're gonna be dumb, ya gotta be tough.

In the tornado prone areas, a bug-out bag should be grabbed as you head for the storm shelter--or stored in the shelter.

Daniel,
He sure sounds a lot like dear old "45/70Govt" and his alter-ego AmandaJean, repackaged, but I don't believe you would remember him.
