The inner city, crime-ridden ghettos of Atlanta and Jacksonville will band together with the meth-smoking white trailer parks and the well-to-do suburbs of transplants who came south for the jobs, all holding hands in unity?
If chit gets real those crime ridden ghettos will be empty pretty quickly.
It depends on the day.
What are you smoking?
Please tell me where YOU are from?
What do you think is the percentage overall of these meth-smoking white trailer parkers are?
Most Southerners make enough money and are middle class, much as everywhere else...
BTW, I’ve met “meth-smoking trailer parkers” from far Northern Maine all the way to the deserts of California.
And almost EVERY big city in the USA, from Detroit to Los Angeles, from Seattle to Miami has violent black thug gangs, and many also have violent Hispanic thug gangs.
No, what the OP was talking about is there once was a Southern Country, it lost its War of Independence. As a Southerner I’m glad, actually. And glad slavery is gone.
Having said that, it simply makes sense that neighboring states would join together.
In the meantime, when all is happening, I’m sure the black gangs of thugs in the cities of Atlanta, Birmingham, New Orleans, Memphis, Macon, Jacksonville, etc. etc. will start killing people but eventually they will either control a no-mans land inside a city or die trying to break out to get food, water, stuff. In other words, they’d be confined at best and whittle down to a remnant over time.
The meth-smokers would try the same, but I’m not sure there’s enough of them to form a gang that could take over a large territory. Other people who are not meth-smokers would oppose them and the meth-smokers/opioid abusers/heroin shooters would find getting a fix harder and harder until there is no more (end of drug-chain suppliers from overseas/pharmacies running out of stock). Not to say pot smoking and moonshining wouldn’t flourish, though. Hell, I know how to distill and I’ve got a ton of land to grow more corn on.
Similar stories would break out all over the nation. Most places would go through terrible violence and predation for a while, and then calmer and stronger heads would prevail.
The question is, what percentage of everyday folk would perish before reason returned?
In the big cities and close suburbs, I’d say at least 60-75%.
