It’s doubtful that those poor victims of racial injustice in Dallas and Houston will participate. Gov. Abbott would have the National Guard parachuting in within the hour. Don’t mess with the man in the wheelchair.

I was just thinking of where I am, judging how safe I am from riots of the type that are happening. I'm 20 miles north of Dallas in a large upper middle to upper class area. Housing is very expensive in this area and even apartment buildings are high rent.

We have a police force and had occasion to speak to one of them not long ago, and he was nice. Their headquarters, plus fire and ambulance are not many blocks away.

I'm saying this large area is civil and the vast majority are law abiding. I would also bet there is at least one family defense weapon in every house. I think if rioters came here, streets would be guarded by those living there and rioters seriously set on harming property or people, would be repelled using deadly force. This is Texas.
