EBT slaves run out of food in 48 hrs and start open pillaging of nicer areas after 5 days. Cops will be guarding their own homes.
I’ll be arming and coordinating.
SampleMan, it's much worse than you could imagine.
We will not have a week of normality before the Gibsmedats come boiling out of the urban kraals.
We will not have three days of Walmart "just-in-time" inventory to feed the hordes and keep them sated.
We will have only HOURS. History teaches us this:
1965 - Los Angeles - the arrest of a young black man in Watts incites a crowd, which spawns a riot, within one hour of the arrest;
1968 - across America - the death of Martin Luther King touches off rioting in several cities within hours of the media broadcast;
1977 - New York - the grid goes offline at 9:30PM, the looting starts around 11PM;
1992 - Miami - Hurricane Andrew's winds haven't even died down before the malls are ransacked;
1992 - Los Angeles - the verdict is announced for the Rodney King Trial, and almost immediately, the city burns;
2005 - New Orleans - the looting started even before the storm made landfall;
2011 - London - a protest over a slain gangbanger turns violent and within four hours, Greater London descends into mayhem;
2012 - Long Island, NY - in the wake of Frankenstorm, enterprising looters dressed as powerline repairmen sneak past the martial law cordon and pillage, with 24 hours of the storm;
2013 - Oakland, CA - less than fifty minutes after the verdict in the Zimmerman Trial is announced, mass demonstrations "spontaneously" erupt, but in Oakland, fires and unrest break out...
Hours, people - not days, hours.
“I’ll be arming and coordinating.”
Not me. I got rid of my guns. Too dangerous. I’ll be here in Cleveland reading the latest Obama book by candlelight.
