Anybody knows how to start a riot?

[resisting arrest with violence]

Besides the obvious---- taking away all the people's video games---- your input would be most helpful. :che:

The suburbs are spead out and I dont know if people that live there really want one. I think the suburbs should supply resources for the inner cities more than trying to start riots (dont want all those homes to be damaged :D )

[Parkbench]

yeah not a good idea. don't try to adapt riots to your area as if rioting int he suburbs would mean anything--rioting requires things being in close proximity. cities or towns are ideal. there's no point in trick-or-treat rioting with no motivation down a development's street.

although rioting is super fun.

lol riots in the suburbs would be the type where everyone gets arrested and nothing gets broken.

Why do you want to start a riot?

[Organic Revolution]

a riot in the suburbs.. jesus christ, that is the worst thing i have ever heard. a bunch of fucking rich white kids knocking over a trash can to prove there machismo to each other.

[Clarksist]

Rioting serves no purpose, except alienating what the riot is "standing for" from the masses. Rioting is counterproductive.

The upperclass rioting?

[OleMarxco]

Geez, why would they -EVER- do that? ;)
'Cept for boredom, o'course. Else, I can't see reason for...
Oh, well, that, and "charity" to the working class.
If a riot, well, it should be more than kickin'
a trashin' can, atleast. Perhaps -THROWING- them...
but that has to be on the police. Boy, that would kick ass....
But I'd rather see common every-day people do it
than the author of this thread, atleast!
Or any of the people I meet on the net. Sissy-kid playah! :D
P.S. Be'sides, why shouldn't we take away people's video games?
It'd be shipped-away as "LIBERATION"! Hah! From obscenely-amounts
of playing....like me.

a riot is a action when the lower class cant take something anymore, thre for it is not counter productive.

Suburbs. Hah. What suburb do you know of that isn't a haven for bourgeoisie who can afford to live outside the city they work in?

Exactly. So what would be the point? There isn't one.

We're living in the "heart of the beast" as Che said. Many of the typical revolutionary action theories must be adjusted to take account of this fact.

I might just start a thread about that ^^^.

every theory of guerilla war or sabatoge or organized resistance in the form of riots must be shifted accordingly to fit the american landscape. but, the situations are different in the city, suburbs, and rural areas of america. which mean we must set in place several theorys... not just trust one
