I wonder if this is in anyway related to a growing problem in American urban areas where gangs of black kids are extorting white kids for their wallets, cell phones, sneakers, and if they refuse, they beat them up and take them. When even the pot to phis in is taken away things can get ugly.
But I don’t think we have to worry until we see people over 65 rioting in the streets. And even that isn’t too much of a worry as they will be easy to catch.
