I am always dismayed at the Americans' attitude of "this can never happen here!" and "we're so civilized compared to these savages over there!"
Bad things, like civil wars, disturbances or food riots happen in other, less civilized countries - never in the USofA.
Why, the following never happened...
It is just special effects:
We are far too civilized for this kind of behavior:
We Americans are simply superior, moral and ethical human beings, unlike those animals in Iraq, Iran and other places we are taught to hate and people we are taught to feel superior to...
We Americans are simply superior to most of this world's riff raff...

Those savages in Iraq!

Yeah, all we need is more third-world immigration (especially from Africa) to raise our level of civilization to the pinnacle of refinement.
"Diversity" is the penultimate expression of western arrogance. Thinking that we can civilize and socialize a rhinocerous to have table manners and etiquette, we allow in the world's hordes and take them straight from the stone age to a first world country and wonder why they behave so child-like. The reason we have so many conviences of modern life is because our forefathers ingeniously created them one-by-one over time, becoming themselves more refined and accultured over time. Taking a caveman to modern Manhattan would not see the caveman simultaneously transform into Taki Theordacoupolous, but would see him use modernitiy to fufill his base caveman instincts.
I completely disagree, Mr. anonymous.
In fact, I would argue that the reverse is true.
If you make a situation critical, with armed conflict, strife, riots, everybody for himself kind of situation - take away modern conveniences also - and watch how quickly those civilized (Americans, Europeans, etc) turn into savages, arm themselves and start a situation a la Somalia and Iraq.
Conversely, take an African bushman child from deep Namibian dry land, and put him in a modern American school, and you will see how he adapts and becomes indistinguishable from the rest of the population.

AG you seen the people in the Wal-Mart video didn't you? Blacks. They STILL dont behave unless they are upper middle class and above. Did you know that black kids whose parents make over 100K still score lower than white kids that have parents who earn roughly 10K a year? Someone like yourself would not stampede into a store to get a bargain like an animal Im sure. I know I sure as hell wouldn't. If I needed money THAT bad, I'd get a night job delivering pizzas five days a week, but thats how whites think. Black underclass welfare trolls wouldn't even consider it
This is the paragraph Im not so sure about:
"Conversely, take an African bushman child from deep Namibian dry land, and put him in a modern American school, and you will see how he adapts and becomes indistinguishable from the rest of the population."

Let me give you a sad example of what blacks do when given something pretty good. Recently in Nashville, a NAVY guy on leave used his swimming training in a new and unusual way. He stole a bunch of ammunition (probably so the purchase wouldn't be traced to his credit card) and a shirt from a store in Opry Mills Mall. The Cumberland River runs behind the mall, a large and fast river. Being chased by security, he dove in the river and swam several miles downstream using the current to carry him very quickly to evade police. He was seen later that night DOWNTOWN..............about four damned miles from the mall. He apparently got a cab and snuck back to the mall the next morn. He has been identified now. I wanna know what he was planning on doing with those bullets? I have an itching feeling he has obtained a gun without a permit. You dont risk that (drowning in a 50 foot deep river infamous for undertow)for mere bullets. He is probably planning on killing someone, and having an untraceable weapons signature. Look at how he has used his Navy training. He has probably a geneaology going back in this nation for several generations. Why would a kid in Namibia be different in the SECOND generation. I know the first generation will be cowed by being here and feel lucky, but their kids wont. They will begin to act......dare I say it, Namibian.
Here we are, making America ever more diverse. We were almost 90% white in 1960. I think we are in for a police state in the future. The public will beg for it, and will get it, because of the things the largely-non-white-underclass will do to frighten them (white voters), and the establishment will be all-to-friggin-happy to deliver. Thats just my opinon though.
This is a very interesting blog.
True until the last sentence. I dont think we are divided enough here *yet* to have a religoius-social war with third world conditions like Rwandis and Tutsis or Shiites, Sunnis, Yezhidis and Kurds...........but I do think it would be very desperate given your average American's lack of "survival" type knowledge. Hell, most of us couldn't grow a flower much less a crop or hunt a deer to save their life. We'd definitely be screwed.
Mr. anonymous, again I disagree with you.
The people in the video are mostly black, true - but there are other ethnicities represented in there for sure.
Anyway, it is not difficult to find purely white people rioting - and not for political reasons, but for no reason at all.
Like their sports team winning a title, for example:

Again, proving my point of "f you make a situation critical, with armed conflict, strife, riots, everybody for himself kind of situation - take away modern conveniences also - and watch how quickly those civilized (Americans, Europeans, etc) turn into savages, arm themselves and start a situation a la Somalia and Iraq."
I noticed that you list the civil wars in the 3rd world countries, but leave off the Yugoslavia civil war which, I assure you, took place in a 1st or 2nd world situation...
Yugoslavia was Christian Serbs vs. Muslim Croats wasn't it? All bets are off when dealing with Muslims. Yugoslavia was held together by Tito for so long, with relgious-ethnic sentiments brewing beneath the surface. They found their expression when he was gone. Islam isn't tolerant, and if you give it money it breeds like flies.
As far as European soccer fans, I agree. Im astonished they behave that way. Ive read about the yob culture and all that gas, but its a pathetic excuse. I cant understand the after-championship parties in towns here and how a few whites behave in them. Maybe they get excited that they too can act loud and rowdy and get away with it for that ONE reason, and overindulge. Quite frankly, I no longer understand sports fervor. I was a star athlete in my youth, but am almost utterly unmoved by baseball, basketball, and even football increasingly. The 'hype' surrounding football games in particular--in a Harlequin Romance-style for men in which announcers depict "important" trades and small changes in the front office of "the organization" as if they were important cabinet appointments in which a new energy policy was going to be enacted or "big" business news or some such. They are just games, but oh have I seen grown men behave illogically over them. Ive seen a couple of really intense fist fights at sports bars over games back in the nineties. I mean who cares so much, right? But they do.
We have infatilized our youth over the past two or three decades, so as you say, some people will act plain silly over being the first to get a video game. I wonder if this behavior carries over into their professional lives? Youre probably right, and I'd probably be dissapointed if a catastrophe really struck. I'd like to think rural people would still tend the farm and make food, and do what they could to ensure civility, but I KNOW that city dwellers of all races would go crazy. Ive read it said that were are three square meals from anarchy before.......that sure is unfortunate.
