If caught in a riot you can hide out in the local Home Depot.

I implemented the key part of my plan in 2011. I moved from the Seattle area to a 32 acre farm in central KY. The “mobs” have to get through 70 miles of people like me to get to me.

I figure it will cull the herd.

1) Don’t live in a neighborhood prone to “urban” civil unrest.
2) Prepare to defend your neighborhood if rioting leaks out.

Remember the inverse square law - it applies to radiation and to rioting.

Eric Holder says Americans are cowards when it comes to discussing race.

Well, Eric, chew on this one.

As a purely hypothetical thought exercise, imagine if there were some way to deport all inner city feral black bastard youths back to the African nation of their choice. What effect would this have on the quality of life in these inner city areas? Positive or negative?

Training is good, as long as it is followed by practice, practice, practice.

There needs to be a much better description of the threat than just “rioters”. Rioting is pretty much limited to dense urban areas. Other places have other threats.

So the way to start is to describe where you live, as urban, suburban, or rural. Over half the population now live in suburbs. This means that attacks against them require transportation. So instead of calling them rioters, they should be called “brigands” or “bandits”.

They would likely come to a single home in several vehicles, cars and motorcycles, with attackers numbering greater than just a robbery gang of 4-6, likely 6-12 or more. Their inclination is not vandalism, but robbery, and to kill anyone in their way.

If they are experienced, they may even leave “pickets” on their entrance and exit routes, to delay any armed response while they escape.

Different threat, so somewhat different response.
