Riots of 2015 - where will you be

[longbow]

My boss lives up in Chicago. He thinks they will have riots this summer after some stupid event. What are the chances of a riot around your home?

I guess the IUB students could head west, but the hills will tire them out.

Very slim chance around my place. The cows would recognize those from cago as being city folk and trample them (hopefully).

Not Lexington if they lose in the Final Four again.

Very little... I'm up near Carmel, 5 of my 6 immediate neighbors are armed, the 6th is a church, the Hamilton Sheriff and CPD would be a big deterrent and there is nothing but private homes here, so no businesses to loot.

No riot I can recall involved house to house looting... Businesses seem to be the preferred targets.

All we ask in this neighborhood is that they wear black balaclavas so that our red-dots show up with better contrast.

I'm probably in a part of the state that will serve as a strong hold if an when something like that goes down....

As long as the social security checks don't bounce and there's Super Poligrip in stock at the local drug store, my neighbors are likely to remain pretty calm.

As a kid growing up outside the DC Beltway. Its not always just the businesses that get looted and burned. The 68 riots in DC businesses and neighborhoods were also looted and burned.
Granted the farther away from the city you live the better off you are.

I'm not real worried about me. I am quite concerned about my family that may live or work near ground zero for these "situations" though. Read that as close enough family that I'll have to go retrieve.

I'm in that boat too. My parents live in Cumberland, and I've been trying to get them to move to Carmel for eons.

I suspect the riots will happen late August/September 2016

 

[Punkinhead]

I'm up near Carmel

With any luck the riots will be contained to the bad part of Carmel.

Mohawk Hills? Heck, they've been trying to class that place up recently. It's actually starting to look "Carmely."

 

[Kutnupe14]

And where did all this riot talk come from in the first place? Did I miss something?

Allegedly there was a little dust-up in a small Missouri town last year.

Not too worried here, Jeffersonville is right across the river from Louisville, those ferals wont cross the river too willingly... And the neighborhood I live in is far enough from the local projects that I would have warning before they got to my area. Lots of armed people around here, the ferals cannot run too fast holding their pants up with one hand, so target acquisition on hood rats would not be much more difficult than hitting a womp rat in my T-16.

Didnt they just tear down part of the complex that was facing Keystone? or were their other improvements?

My grandmother still lives in Cumberland! Dude - we might be related!

To organize a riot in my neighborhood, they will need to know Hindi, Urdu, and Mandarin.

They tore down the A-frame part of the clubhouse that had the indoor [strike]bacteria culture[/strike] pool and I think the tennis/basketball court. I don't think they had to take down any revenue-generating buildings.

No problem here..closest neighbors smoke a lot of pot and drink heavily.. They only get upset when they run out..
