I had a brief conversation with a neighbor a few days ago. He's an Army reservist and an investigator for a 3-letter gov't agency.
We are on neighborly terms but I have NOT gone into detail about my supplies. He only knows I own some guns (and he does too) and that's about it. The wind storm that came through recently knocked out power to the neighborhood. I told him that I'm sure I looked like a beacon of "free stuff" with my lights and TV on when the power went out. He made a joke about knowing where to go for supplies and that basically I'd be an easy loot drop for him.
He claims to be conservative with no love for The Administration but that doesn't mean that he won't turn on a neighbor when his food and fuel runs out. I now have zero trust in him and will be keeping my mouth zipped when he's around.
