As a former inhabitant of Memphis (1960-1984) I understand. It’s going to get utterly and profoundly ugly when civil war develops. You’re seeignthe signs of it now. Anyone who wishes to live and who hasn’t alerady left is going to have to be prepared to kill without a thought or mercy.
You’re dealing with savages. Be prepared to act accordingly. Rourke’s Drift style - if you get my ‘drift’.
What people don’t understand is, that if the bottom drops out...
Those folks that you thought were nice people will steal you blind and worse if you cant defend yourself.
I would have to say that humanity is not a physical condition, but a mental condition.
And if a homo sapien cannot mentally be human, then he/she is an animal.
Killing animals doesn’t require as much mental preparation (ie: thought/mercy).
