You’re suggesting the Zimmerman verdict could be a black swan event that has unforeseen consequences....here’s another:

Something - could be an EMP attack, a big X-class solar flare, a cyber attack, sabotage, or just a new and especially well-executed computer virus - knocks out the internet. Forget about all the inconsequential stuff and consider: what fraction of the population cannot eat beyond what they have in their fridge and cupboard without using a credit, debit, or EBT card?

Especially an EBT card, because that group of people almost certainly not going to be “preppers”, or have more than a few days worth of food on hand. Hungry people do very bad things.

And all the gummint has to do is make those cards stop working to create total pandemonium. It sounds like a good movie plot, doesn’t it?

You’re right - 43 million starving, jobless EBT cardholders could cause a bit of chaos.

When the SHTF take a look at the county level electoral map from 2012. Those geographically small areas filled with leftists of all stripes that elected obama will be the areas to avoid. The security apparatus both state and federal will have their hands full with uncontrollable obamabots taking off the hands that used to give them their hand outs.

The rest of the country will get by the old fashioned America way by working together and defending what we've worked for.

If Chicago erupts in a major conflagration will it really matter in Montana or Alabama?
