Well, Mike. Less than 24hrs from the original post and a huge bridge has collapsed.
Care to share your crystal ball?

I have said that for years; I am not worried about myself but my children and grandchildren.….not only mine.This is why I worry about my children.
At this point I'm past my best if used by date and rather disposable. They are not.
It is all the blood flow from years of bicycling…Well, Mike. Less than 24hrs from the original post and a huge bridge has collapsed.

Agreed.There is clearly no doubt that America is ripe for some kind of catastrophic event.
It’s really just a matter of when.
Us. I mean that seriously. With the number of non-citizen military age males in the country, it will be up to the militia. (Volunteer list in my case due to age)If there were teams of foreign special forces, several in each state, what defenses would we have to defend against them and the havoc they could cause?
How well does that work after the gangs are paid off, the race extremists armed with weapons and explosives and the power grid damaged. Free for all types to get their revenge or enact their own agenda.

Damn, sure glad I'm not of this world, but merely passing though.Here is a scenario, based on things that have happened in the last several months and years.
Week 1:
Several mass shootings rock the nation as schools, shopping malls and houses of worship are attacked over several days. Protests to "Stop the Violence" and "Repeal the 2nd" pop up around the nation. By the end of the week many of them are near riot stages during the evening.
Weekend 1:
During several of the protests, in several cities lone wolf patriots and some rogue cops open fire on the crowds. The news media go wild flaming the protests into riots, sections of large cities start to burn. Some governors call out the National Guard to supplement local law enforcement. Response to the call out is mixed with 1/3 calling in sick, or already occupied in their primary occupations in first response and health care.
Week 2:
As cities start to burn, a massive cyber-attack hits the phone grid and internet, cutting off communication between panicked families and crashing several 911 centers in large cities. The inability to direct fire and medial responses causes more deaths and distrust. With cities in chaos, truckers refuse to deliver needed supplies. Food and aid stack up in warehouses around major cities.
Weekend 2:
With first responders already stretched thin, distribution warehouses and food processing plants start to experience fires all over the country.
Week 3:
Across the nation, several bridges and overpasses collapse due to trucks exploding at key points. A day later dozens of power substations are attacked causing mass blackouts. Crews are not able to do their jobs safely, so they aren't even called up.
Much of America is now cut off from food, medical treatment, water in several days and communication with each other and authorities. Crisis after crisis has left responders exhausted and stretched thin.
How and when does the Federal government respond? Will it be too little, too late, or massive overreach.
When, where, how and around whom do we rally to fight back against this?

A lot like that movie Purge. Not pretty, essentially 5th generation warfare.How well does that work after the gangs are paid off, the race extremists armed with weapons and explosives and the power grid damaged. Free for all types to get their revenge or enact their own agenda.
The current Federal government responds ineffectually and unconstitutionally.How and when does the Federal government respond? Will it be too little, too late, or massive overreach.

Right on! People think that the event is more important than their personal safety. Gotta add that shopping in the mall is out, exception being food supplies from grocery store.If I can't carry ( with the exception of government bldg ) I don't go!
