Might be more effective if they didn't use an apostrophe to denote plural.

“Be prepared to give up your cell phone and purse/wallet.”

How about “Carry a weapon and shoot to kill” instead.

It's a possessive crime, so there's that.

There is no legal way to stop the rioters. If you have been selected to be beaten, carjacked, or to have your business or house burned down, just submit and comply, and hope you live through it.

You won't be arrested for rioting, but defending yourself from rioting....you bet your ass you're gonna be fully prosecuted for that, you racist bigot.

Ask the McCloskys in Saint Louis. City attorney (whose election was heavily funded by George Sorros) has declined to prosecute any rioters/looters but wants to prosecute them for daring to show they were armed and ready to defend their property. Good thing the State DA said he would intervene if she tries to move forward with this

Since it has become impolitic to touch or otherwise restrain perpetrators, I recommend immediate escalation to deadly force for non compliance in all instances. That way ALL people who get the cops called on them receive equal and impartial treatment by the Police.

I lived in LA during the 90's riots. There were so many people carrying it wasn't even believable. K-Town armies on the roofs. The police didn't give a shit because they knew where the real threat was.

Somehow, I feel that independently of what the politicians are saying, the police are going to cut some serious slack in some of these spots.

BTW, please ensure you "fear for your life, or the life of one with you".
