Quite the contrary the rabble can be counted on to riot at the drop of a hat even if all they get from it is a couple of bottles of booze, the chance to beat people in the streets or to watch fires.

Even ILLUSIONS is sufficient to get the rabble in high gear.

I have seen very few true riots over the course of my life.
There was Detroit in 1967; also Watts. There was the LA riot. There have been a few disturbances. But there really is not a large, seething mass of people perched on the brink of lawlessness and ready to run into the street and set the world afire the instant that supervision is inattentive or the power goes out. This is my view of things, anyway.
