Treat riots similar to brushfires. By the time it's a couple miles away, you need to have the car packed, a BOL decided on, and be ready to bolt at a moments notice. The rent a cop at the complex gate isn't going to be worth much against a mob.

Stay away from rallies, protests, and other potential flash points. That means both the planned ones, and ones that seem to form on their own. Keep an eye on the news as well for possible trigger events. [redacted]

My decision to step in here wasn't easy to make. Let me be clear that I do not believe that the poster intended to give offense to any group, but I think the specific trigger event that was suggested has too much potential to be inflammatory. Let's avoid discussion of what could be a trigger for a riot on ETS.
