The crowds at the beginning of black Friday (the crazy, ravenous ones trying to save $100 on a TV by waiting in line for 8 hours) would pick stores clean of every supply and reserve in half a day if people knew that there was no police, no security, no hope for re-supply.
The_Dunedan is right, except that there are plenty of white people who would turn violent in TEOTWAWKI situations. And we would form gangs or small military like units to control sections as well. I think the military personnel would stay on base and protect it using the equipment they have, while trying to start a sustainable community inside. Being able to help them would be the best case to survive, yet they will have food growing problems as well for the first few months.
I'm not sure having a farm would be the best plan (unless it was next to a military base). It would be kind of exposed and stationary. I'm not sure if I would be able to survive as a GypFugees or MZB. I think we need to read up on how to survive in the wilderness, even when other humans are actively hunting you for whatever supplies you have.
Living on a sailboat might be a good option if you are self sustainable with water, fish, and reserves of food + multi-vitamins. If you could survive the first year, I think things would quiet down.
