Matt's essay is racist at its core.

Utter B.S. Only a far-left racist would make such a comment.

I pray for the day when all government welfare ends. That will be a day of rejoicing, not a day of murder and mayhem.

You are utterly delusional. We all wish it could end peacefully, but the reality is without a doubt the opposite of your delusional fantasy.

Gosh, I think if we wake up to news that Europe has closed the banks due to a panic, that might be a few hours warning. Or the missiles are flying in the Middle East. But anything could trigger a panic, once videos of looted supermarkets in the USA get around. People would head to their local food market “just in case” and this extra buying might cause a panic. Who knows? We are in uncharted water. Most important: don’t live on or near fatal terrain. See my article about the CW2 Cube if you have not read it yet. Being on bad terrain will mean the worst happens to you first. Being far in the boonies will give a buffer of time, I should think.

Two years ago the Texas legislature passed a law that all water systems and water treatment plants had to install diesel genersators sufficient to run them during a big disaster without interruption. They are all in place now so we will have running water. Period.

The Japanese reactors had backup generators for the cooling systems. Then the earthquake and tsunami happened, flooded the ones that were in the basement, and the roads were in no shape to allow for fuel deliveries for the generators, or to truck in replacement generators.

On 9/11, NYC's main emergency command center was on the 23rd floor of 7 World Trade Center.

We will eventually find out what sort of disaster will knock out the generators for the water system.

Put a few thousand of her on the street outside the govt assistance office when they are told EBTs are over “for the foreseeable future,” and they will loot the place and burn it to the ground. 100% sure. Mob psychology is never far from the surface of latent savages thrust into civilization.

I hope to keep my finger on the pulse well enough to get a little advance notice. I live on the outskirts of a city and I intend to be a few hours away from that intersection before this scenario takes place.
If that works our for me the scenario changes. If I’m going to go fishing, I want to land a marlin. America’s decline into third-world status is deliberate. The architects of that decline will not be blocking intersections.

And clearly seen in the video, these moms believe the EBT money is their RIGHT, and they are ready to go to blows if you so much as delay refilling the card accounts.

When TSHTF, count on "urban men" to look after themselves first, and to hell with the women they've been sleeping with, AND their young children.

I think Matt’s essay is reasoned and supported with historical facts that occurred in crisis areas of other nations.

If that makes me a racist in your eyes so be it. I refuse to be held hostage for fear of others stigmatizing me over something that is pathetically subjective.

Better said, kiss my ass.

Your facts are not in dispute. What is in dispute is the racist notion that the ghetto will rise up in violence when the gravy train stops. That is outrageously false. The heart of the black community is love and support. When the government stops its horrid intrusion into the life and culture of the black community it will be possible to turn things around.

I think most FReepers will consider you delusional. Including myself.

Take a good long look at this video of LA Riots coverage

I also note that no mention (credit?) is given to this being the end-game result of following the Cloward-Piven Strategy model.

Probably an additional 5,000 just on this aspect contributing to the debacle.

What, pray tell, will they eat? Do you think that starving people tend to sit at home and quietly die?

Since you’ve asked and answered your own question about three times now, you can stop.

Matt's essay is racist at its core. It characterizes blacks as rats in a cage, ready to eat their own when the food stops.

You sir, are the RACIST, reading into my essay what was never there. Did you read it, or read "about" it? Can you please cite where I compared blacks to rats in a cage? If you cannot, then I disrespectfully suggest that you go walk into rush hour traffic, or off a tall building, or do some other good for humanity in that vein.

I don’t think a decline requires architects to engineer it. Human nature just runs its course. THis time, there is a lot more humanity, living very far from their food sources. Anything stops the deliveries, starvation and madness will follow quickly.

“Bring it all down, man.”

It’s a pretty evil strategy to lead a nation into a fatal culdesac, or over a buffalo jump, because you believe that post-crisis, your Bolshevik buddies will be able to take control.

I’m going to be blunt — I don’t care what happens to the “urban” population anymore. They’ve made it clear that they don’t want help, they bite the hand that feeds them, and won’t lift a finger to help themselves or get themselves out of their predicament. Half want just to grouse, and the other half want blood revenge.

Fine. Screw ‘em. They can kill each other, burn their neighborhoods down, abort their next five generations, whatever. I don’t care what happens to them. They’ve kept themselves where they are and if that brings consequences then that’s their tough luck.

People bemoan “food deserts”. If there are food deserts, the people living in those deserts are directly and entirely to blame for them. The women won’t demand marriage from their men, thus they can’t discipline their kids alone, the “baby daddies” are horrible examples of parents, and the cycle repeats. Of those kids who don’t just repeat the cycle, the rest turn to violence. Of course there are food deserts — they’ve placed themselves well outside the green zone, and they don’t even realize it.

To the lurkers: gripe and grouse, raise the fist and yell “kill whitey” all you want. It’s you that are killing each other. When the last of you is left, just wake me when you don’t have anyone else left to shoot at, because I couldn’t give a rat’s behind about what you’re putting your own vaunted “community” through.

“Homeland Security”

Just exactly how many is there of those?

Just damn. 1 day. That’s it. 1 day. As one poster put it, the dumb broad stood at the welfare office for 6 hours and that could have been a work day. 1 day. No food.
