[QUOTE="Lurker66, post: 2601498, member: 24459"] Like you im kinda outside the city zone. Its the escalation part that I worry about. Using Ferguson as the example. Relatively small section of a bigger city. Sure the riot and looting "could" spread and be contained, even if it spread to greater St. Louis, Leo's and NG could contain it. It was the "other" potential accidental escalation I worried most about. What if the crowd of protesters was fired into. How would America react? Theres tons of video footage of Law Enforcement aiming firearms at peaceful crowds.....law enforcement aint exempt from the real possibility of a discharge, accidental or intentional. The other thing was citizens reacting to officers. If citizens would have fired on officers and officers returned fire by fireing into crowds. Glad it didnt happen but I think it was a very resl possibility. Thats what concerned me, that kinda escalation. Not sure how America would have reacted or how Missouri would have reacted. If this escalated into a city wide or State/regional thing, not sure how Americans would react. And im of the opinion, this is a real life example of how S could htf. [/QUOTE]
