What you say makes sense however I think that if there is warfare in our country, powers will arm and stir up and even bus in to the burbs well armed killers. there are people who want the turmoil
Warfare of that sort requires trained armies and arms, I think a “race war” is a different animal, a very low intensity conflict. We’ve seen a taste of it in the Rhodesian transition to Zimbabwe and post-Apartheid South Africa in the form of targeted white genocide in black-majority areas under cover of the media and new governments. It would likely be targeted racial attacks, disguised as civil unrest and insurrection, or simply crime, or even “games” like polar bear hunting. The event chain leading to a more disciplined conflict is highly improbable- neither side currently has the right combination of resources, political will, coalition, or preparation. Aside from this, even the biggest racial agitators are aware that there is too much to lose- whatever is done must retain plausible deniability. If it is a direct attack on the suburbs, for example, there are far too many former and current military who have been doing counter-insurgency for two plus decades, who now live in those burbs who would very rapidly organize and respond to an attack of this sort in a far reaching, decisive grass-roots campaign. It would then be an extremely one sided and bloody affair and it would take generations to undo the fallout, in my opinion.
