Do You Know What To Do In A Nuclear Attack? - Page 6

People are animals and we are the most dangerous predator. Add some desperation in there and we're more dangerous still. In a survival situation like this the best course of action is to get as far away from people as possible… and be ready for when they finally stumble on you and try to take it. Vigilance is paramount… never become complacent.

Ruthless yes, but maybe not the second part. Sometimes you have to be ruthless with the bad… but you can be merciful to those in need and not a threat and still survive. The hard part is distinguishing between the two.
