Since when do average Americans (my white neighbors) form into mobs and attack businesses. Probably the closest thing we have done resembling that was lock up Japanese Americans in camps, and even that was pretty tame compared to what you are predicting. In any case, if that did happen it would not be a Federal issue and the National Guard would be called out by the State’s governer has has been done very time there is a riot such as the one you describe. The Fed has no jurisdiction in states unless it is to enforce the constitution, which was the case when Eisenhower sent the 101st Airborne to Little Rock, Ark. Even that was quite controversial.

As to Crystal Nacht. That was against Jews and meant to give Hitler an excuse to ramp up his progroms against them. We have no similar divisions in this country at the moment. There is no racial or ethnic group we are blaming for our problems.
