I just don't see migratory groups of people destroying everything...You would think, if a group of people stumbled upon a farm that they could use, they would try to save it and not terrorize it, especially as it may be their last and only resort for food and shelter in a SHTF situation.

I hear a lot of survivalists say that their plan is to run to the countryside.

I think the OP lives in Europe, somewhere (probably England), where the population density is much higher, and farmland more scarce and infertile.
I'm sure that Americans are VERY well set up to survive anything. We could even easily fend off any invasion attempt. The people who should be worrying are the stupid Europeans and Asians who have overpopulated, overused, and overstretched their resources, irresponsibly.

I have no doubt in my mind that the "countryside" will not be the greatest English location in which to be. I saw some countryside at the weekend and its all farmland. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.
