How are we going to distinguish a riot from the 'normal' behaviour of gangs randomly attacking people on the street, gangs swarming a store to plunder & destroy, etc.?jeffrey-r said:Assuming we all nail down a clear definition of "riot" so there's no equivocation after the fact, I'd be willing to put up $50 on the "no riot" side.
I think the urban terrorists are already in full swing, and have been using the Zimmerman trial to stir up marginal people (people who needed encouragement to go wild) and encourage the ones who already commit crimes.
No matter which way the verdict goes (and I think he has to be found not guilty, if the jury is honest), there will be riots, attacks, arsons, vandalism & visigothism. Maybe not on the scale of the LA riots after the Rodney King beating, but that's possible too. Lots of smaller attacks could be just as damaging, only spread out.
