He's the Rick Moranis of Tenochtitlan!

I don't know--I can see it happening in bigger cities, but in towns under 100K, rednecks would beg the cops to deputize them. Carrying a TV would be like drawing a bullseye on your forehead.

Your probably right.

Around here in the Chesterfield area one would not expect a whole lot of trouble to come our way typically speaking. Of course that would probably be the first place the rioters and looters would hit. Hey why not! Go for the money and the gold.

I would not be surprised if stuff like this does not start spilling over into the USA. Lets hope not. So far so good anyway.

I think the shooting of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was our wake-up call and people have taken it down a few notches here in the states.

Rioting is not always caused by social unrest.

Many times it's just an excuse for hoodlums to run wild.

Correct and that is exactly what happened in this case, it was just oppourtunist thieving.
