    Power goes out, people start doing dumb things for profit or survival, people get wronged by those actions and respond with violence, violence begets violence, fear grows, paranoia grows, violence becomes more likely with less provocation, welcome the lord of the flies to the concrete jungle.

    The national guard would get called in and martial law would happen before the tribal wars could really kick off but there would be racially motivated violence all the same, as is tradition.

        They would trickle in, securing based on priority and needs, coming to full deployment in 72 hours. Problems after grid failure would manifest in hours. The Nasty Girls wouldn’t be in place fast enough to stop everything, but they would be ready before things could get near the racists’ wet dream.

        Obviously, the single celled intelligence of overnight race war instigators can’t plan anything more complex than when to breathe next; so they can’t possibly fathom the real world series of events that would follow their fantasy big-brain master plans.
