Preppers’ PING!!
For you consideration, comments and critique.
This is where I think our right wing talkers have failed us.
If there is rioting in the cities, it doesn’t require a response in the country and I wish our radio people were differentiating the rural from the urban areas. For that matter, rioting in a city always ends with the rest of the country paying for it financially and that needs to stop.
Own-sef ping.
Sorry to reference this on FR, but last month I read a work of fiction along these lines (NSFW) entitled “The Collapse” that can be found on an adult site called ‘Literotica’. The first 2/3 of the story are the relevant portion and the parallels to this story are remarkable. Remarkable for the fact that it’s not just a handful of people who are now contemplating this kind of situation.
It’s well worth reading the entire article down to the point where vigilante sniper teams launch their counterattack against the urban flash mob rioters.
This scenario is likeliest in cities where the Entitlement Community holds majority sway.
The days of large riots driven predominantly by black folks, over things like court trials, won't be repeated in the LA region.
Much of the black population took the midnight train to Georgia, Texas and other points east and south.
when the ebt cards stop working, the violence will be extreme.
Y’all do realize this is our very own FRiend Travis, dontcha?
You might want to post it again here so the uninitiated can get ready.
It sounds like whites (and middle-class blacks) should get out of the big cities — or buy some major guns and ammo. The suburbs will be ready to ‘repel boarders’.

Unless things have changed in the past few months, I don't think the military forces will fight the American public. I served for almost 40 years, and not many supported this regime. That includes all races with blacks who felt stupid voting for the won just because of skin color. Believe me, the sniper numbers on our side are in our favor.

There’s a growing wave of crimes committed by people of similar status and background all over the country. When they lose their jobs or have their incomes cut, they’ll explode.
As for poverty, that doesn’t cause crime. Immorality does, and it’s exhibited in all economic classes.
Prophetic article.
If I am in my car, sometimes a Jeep Cherokee, sometimes an old Camero,and I encounter a mob, can the mob prevent me from running them down?
Seriously. What prevents the mob from getting creamed? My sense of human worth? It seems to me that Rodnely King could have ran them down.
If it were my life, I'd absolutely run a mob over. Or can a mob be so huge, that even a car is useless?

A couple of embellishments if you'll indulge me. For one thing, the first thing that breaks down in this scenario is emergency services. The mob sets a fire and somebody calls the fire department and here comes a big, red, loud, visible truck with easily-identified occupants in to fight the fire...and to get ruthlessly shot. Ambulance services? Forget it. And so the focus of the action turns to emergency rooms, quickly overwhelmed by the wounded of both sides and their friends, who will carry the fight to the sanctuary. I cite Beiruit, Iraq, and Guatemala as recent examples. The prepared neighborhood group had better include medical care because it's the only place that it may safely be provided.
Walled cities. This is, after all, the classic human response to predatory violence from outside. These will be neighborhoods with defensive perimeters, including bulldozed security zones that provide adequate fields of fire. See Israel and the PA for examples.
Logistics. Always this in warfare, and those enclaves who have provided for supply and storage will survive where those less prepared will not. This is true of water and food, but it is more immediately true in the realm of medication - see contemporary Greece for an example.
Social attrition. Small organizations - local gangs through neighborhood defense forces - who lose, will be wiped out. Those allying to a larger group will be protected so long as they are convenient and betrayed and shattered when that becomes more convenient still. People will be killed not for what they have done but for what they are, or worse, what they can be accused of symbolizing. See Bosnia/Herzegovina for an example, or, for that matter, all of human history.
Depressing list? You bet it is. This, however, is the breakdown of society from which the ones who pursue it imagine a stronger, newer, more just society emerging. The phoenix is, however, imaginary, while the ashes are real.
More to add to the rioting zombie hordes.
