Re: When/where will 1st Riot in US be?!
Actually I think that the days of group action being an effective means of political change, violent or non-violent, are becoming a thing of the past. I think we are moving more into a realm of individual action. For a non-violent example, one of the most powerful actions a person can take is to stop participating in the system. Quit being a slave to consumerism and debt. Quit caring about the shallow values sold in the media, see through the lies of selling your life for a paycheck or a new car, quit paying taxes.

On the more active end, a few hundred people acting independently and autonomously to throw a wrench in the system wherever they can and then disappear could do a lot more than a half-million rioting all at once.

But again, it will take bravery to do either one, and individual bravery is not to be found in the US.

What was that line? From the poet Robert Frost perhaps? "Not with a bang, but a whimper."

TS Eliot, The Hollow Men, last stanza:

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.

Re: When/where will 1st Riot in US be?!
Last year Europe saw alot of protests and riots



And now in North Africa (Algeria and Tunisia)


When will the first major riot against the economy and NWO begin in the states?

so the questions is WHEN and WHERE do you think the first major riot in US will be?
 Quoting: Muhajiir


Definitely Detroit. But if a cop brutally beats or kills someone, it will start there first.

Texas.
Then Texas will secede from the union, quickly followed by Arizona, Oklahoma and Louisiana, maybe Utah and Kansas.
