WTF.....5-10 is insane enough....300 people?  That's scarily organized in a chaotic disorganized kind of way.  That's mob/riot size.  Holy fuck shit!

White folk flash mob are for fun harmless things.  The media abuses the term when people of color engage in an orchestrated riot.  BTW, they used to do it in the early '60s at a shopping mall in San Francisco.   Like locust they would descend down upon the Stonestown Shopping Center, loot it and high tail it back to the Ocean View District.

I couldn't tell. Was that the same Flash Mob that sang the Hallelujah Chorus in the food court?

Looked slightly different for some reason.

It takes effort, planning, and coordination to assemble that many people for any purpose.  

Somehow our priorities in America are ass probing people from the TSA, spying  on individuals with the NSA, meanwhile we have open borders and damn near miniature armies raiding stores as they please.  Priorities are so out of fucking whack its insane.  In another thread people bitch about open carrying a rifle?  Hell, might as well start doing it if you're going to wally world.  Fuck.

To be honest, I'm surprised there wasn't more visible looting as is usually the common tie between these flash mob videos.  Yup, the only common tie...

"Channel 4's Crime Analyst Ken Jefferson said any sort of crime where there's hundreds of people involved is a dangerous situation."

"You've got a large number of people going and coming at the same time they are throwing produce,".




J'ville is about as fucked up as a soup sandwich... Best part of the article is reading the comments!

Imagine a scene like that, only bigger and happening everywhere in or near big cities. When 300 could enter a store and just do whatever they want, think of twice or three times that many.

This is why you could never cut off "services".
We are a nation held hostage by those we have tried to help by giving and giving.

I'm not saying all or even part of this crowd are on "entitlements", but a combination of this and the LA riots is exactly the type of scene that would play out.

Not to make the mood too heavy or anything, but do you all have a plan for food, water, shelter, heat, first aid and protection when this stuff is happening on a biblical scale?



Note that a closet full of guns is not an entire plan, but just a small part of it.

Turn off the lights, cut all power and backup power to everything and then lock the doors.  What you do next is determined by your creativity.
