Also if it becomes common place and common knowlege that the cops cannot cope with multiple incidents you can be sure the next night it will be your local family owned store that gets hit, then perhaps those nice looking houses just round the corner from you, then you???

In the LA Rodney King riots the looters stayed away from one family own convenience store even though it was in the middle of the rioting and arsonists, Why Cos the family of Vietnamese people sat on the roof in chair with rifles and shotguns in their hands for three solid days and nights.

Most of the police are trying to contain the riots elsewhere in the neighborhood....would you go to Adsa at 7pm and loot Asda? And why/why not?

Same Scenario a few days later when the police and government get desperate and read The Riot act and you dont hear the proclamation and go out looting.( Yes the Riot Act is still on the statutes), You come charging out of Boots with a load of cosmetics and the 1000 rioters are faced with 4 cops armed with MP5s, You laugh, they fire!!!!!

I've just googled "The Riot Act" and it says it was repealed on 18th July 1973!!
