uhhh....that nearly five decades of the Great Society has left the intended audience too fat and happy on their couch at home with their free cable TV, Obamaphone and SNAP-paid snacks to go out and participate in a good riot?
I was thinking that air conditioning has made all the difference. In the race riots of the 60s, many of these people lived in tenements that did not have air conditioning. Now that almost everyone has air conditioning, it’s too hot to go out and protest or riot.
