So think everyone probably agrees with this, and there is a point to be made that people are training for a civil war when they are more likely to get carjacked or run into an intruder in their work or home, but I think having a battle belt isn't a horrible idea. I trained a lot with Swat guys and they sorta emulate DeltaCagRangerSealRecon in some ways, and I am not a Swat guy let alone a ReconRanger, I was a POG Marine 10 years ago, but there is something to be said about training in a team atmosphere that a belt does lend itself to. I was in and around the George Floyd "mostly peaceful" riots, and had the Highway I was on shut down in a matter of minutes when I was attempting to get to my home. All of that showed me that having some sort of on body sustainment isn't a bad idea, and I can run out of my Vertx bag for most things but when I work wearing a dress shirt and slacks and have over 30 miles to get home, a few pouches on the belt and my hips to help carry the weight make some sense. Not that I would try to be overt with it unless the situation dictated.
Dr. Carter G. Woodson, “History shows that it does not matter who is in power or what revolutionary forces take over the government, those who have not learned to do for themselves and have to depend solely on others never obtain any more rights or privileges in the end than they had in the beginning.”
