I moved to central KY in 2011 because, in no small part, I think we are ever closer to SHTF, but this article is over the top. As just one example, I use the author’s comparison of Reginald Denny to the situation in this future event. Denny’s fault was the same as the US Gov’s fault in 9/11: He didn’t know what the stakes were. If the scenario in this story happens, by the time people are commuting to “what few jobs are left”, the world is already no longer the world we live in. And the poor are now weak with hunger, getting weaker by the day. And the average person is armed.
To put it bluntly, the gridlock the author describes will be full of those more akin to the Korean Shop owners than Reginald Denny.
You see what happened in Louisville this past Saturday night?
The truth is that MUYs are just itching forca reason to riot. It doesn’t take much to get them rolling, and LMPD proved Saturday just how unprepared (and clueless) local law enforcement is to rapidly step in and quell such a situation. All the MRAPs and black tac gear and SWAT trained officers aren’t going to make a lick of difference when one of these events actually reaches critical mass
