Outlaw
Over the weekend, alleged Atlanta Olympic bomber Eric Rudolph was finally captured in North Carolina after 5 years on the run, becoming one of America's most wanted criminals. Not only was he caught such a long time after the manhunt began, but it happened outside a grocery store, where he was caught buying batteries for his flashlights and had newer tennis shoes on his feet. Rudolph was likely aided by family/friends and those who supported his extreme methods of taking the "law" into his own hands, which made him sort of a local legend.
This got me to thinking....just out of curiosity...
Could you survive on the run for 5 years as this man did? Could/Would you cut it in the harsh N. Carolina mountains, or would you flee to other parts? What would you do during all that time you were alone, with (likely) nobody to talk to? What would you eat, and where would you sleep?
How would you evade the law?
