Was this sort of crap really called for?

"...January 1, 2000
The President will declare martial law on this day, prohibiting people from being on the street after 11pm.
He will call in the National Guard to try to control the rioting, but the effort will have little impact. While
Guardsmen can easily handle isolated outbreaks of violence (such as the O.J.trial riots in L.A.), they now
find themselves spread paper-thin as rioting and looting take over in L.A., Detroit, Chicago, St. Louis,
New York, and a half-dozen other cities. Fires, started by the rioters, burn well into the weekend, and
few people realize why the fire department can't respond: their communications systems are completely
down, and effectiveness is reduced to a third of normal..." |
