Riot?

Envisage a riot situation wherein all law and order have devolved into irrelevancies, and one can essentially act as one's capacity and inclination dictates. What would you do? Help those who needed it? Defend your home and family? Go looting and freeloading?

I would find the largest vehicle I could , stuff it full of as much ammunition, weaponry, food, and water as I could find, as well as possibly a water filter if I could get one, and head for the nearest forest/mountains.

First, I'd probably have a few drinks to celebrate my plan succeeding.

Then I'd probably found my own Roving Band of Maniacs. You have to start these things early so you get your pick of maniacs. You don't want to be left with the scrub maniacs.

Once my roving band of maniacs was up to full strenth, we would, as the name suggests, wander around looking for a good time. Mostly at other people's expense. :)

Dude, its just a riot, not the apocalypse. Outside the city everything is still cool.

Anyways, in a riot situation I'd defend me and mine as well as possible. If any outsiders came by, I might be willing to offer them protection and food in exchange for a reasonable rent and assistance in defense.

I wouldn't want to take the risk of just sitting there. If stuff like that starts happening, I'm gonna get the hell out of there and make sure i have enough supplies to wait it out.

1) Try an gather together a community and make plans to escape the city.
a) Give speech about community spirit and banding together and mention the poem by Pastor Niemoeller.
b) Plan and execute raids on petrol stations, supermarkets and a library.
c) Escape by car to farm outside of the city. Offer the farmer and family to set up a cooopertative explaining the situtation that we will need food and shelter and he will need labour when the gas for his combine harvester runs out.
d) Concentrate on developing the farm into a sustainable community (wells, clothing production, food, defense and housing expansion).
e) Get out my copies of books parlor games, Novels, Plays and Non-fiction books and use for entertainment. Maybe go back into the city and raid a sports shop.
f) Live it up in the anarchist haven that I have created. Maybe try and establish links with any neighbours and see if we want to trade anything.
g) Make future raids into London to recover books from the British Library and try and save as much of the history and culture of the civilisation that has just collapsed.
h) Get on with my work for tomorrow's seminar. >.<

Good. My roving band of maniacs will need a place to raid occasionally for homemade whiskey and women. :)

For whiskey and women? Happy to. We may be a roving band of maniacs, but as they will be hand-picked by yours truly, we will be able to put on one hell of a performance. :)

Fair enough. But you only get the women if your performance is good enough to make them swoon over you. But no penis puppetry! It's not big and it's not clever.

Put on some old hockey equipment and S&M gear, weld a motorcycle to a monster truck, give myself a wild mohawk and then proceed to tear around the countryside looking for "go-juice" to power my machine of death and destruction.

Man I missed these forums. Formerly, I was Eastern Skae...but that one got deleted, and I couldn't make it come back, so I made a new nation. Anyway, I would gather up my family, pets, and other valuables and get the hell out until things subsided. Because I'm a selfish little bitch.:p

But it's certainly one of those life experiences everyone ought to have. *nod*I experience it annually... every year this family have a xmas party and have a game of charades after the meal. The objective is take an obscure phrase, film, book and then make up the most obsure way of getting across the charade, preferably syllable by syllable. And then cross dress for most of it. Or at least run around only in your underwear, or other things that aren't generally socially accepted.

In my view it's the only thing that makes Xmas bearable.

In college. I lost a drunken bet. The items in question were purchased by a friend's girlfriend for the occasion.

Mass riots are one of those times when you get to try all the things you would never have the guts to try otherwise; like steal televisions.

Unfortunately for me, there is little that I won't try. So the only thing left for me to do is recruit others. :)

Failing at an attempt to be a hanger-on of LG's roving maniacs, I would have no choice but to find a discarded bucket of KFC and a pint of root beer, and eat until the pain went away.

I would wave my arms helplessly and dance around the edges of the excitement making distressed noises. When that didn't work, I would find a six-pack of Blue Moon Belgian Wheat Ale, pay for it, and go somewhere else.

I once at my last year in junior high, gave all the other kids the idea, and tryed to organize a massive snach and run at the mall. I said that if there were 300 of us, we would just snach things, and run...

All sorts of things, I mean like clothes, televisons, beer, toys even[and then give them to children we passed on the street] and drugs that we could sell to other people...

BUt they didn't want my diea, fucking assholes:mad:

I'd load up my rifle/shotgun & pistol, find someone else thats armed, and challenge them to a duel, then promptly take offence to the acceptance and pump a slug into his chest - One of those things you wanna do..:) Then I'd prob. go looking for Sel or LG's bands to waste away the time.

I would organize gangs of urban Girl Scouts -- or "troops" as they call themselves. The urban Girl Scouts are much smarter and tougher than Boy Scouts (who are just cult trainees these days anyway) or those pathetic, countrified 4H farm-nerds.

I would send my little Brownies and Cadets out to collect every brick, piece of masonry, length of rebar, case of whiskey, and pack of pantyhose they can find, which we would trade to LG's maniacs for things they don't value -- like food, guns and bullets.

Armed and supplied, we would then eradicate our enemies (4H!!) and consolidate Girl Power.
