For months now there have been rumors that law enforcement agencies at all levels have been preparing for riots related to the upcoming Presidential election. Some rumors exist that some agencies, such as federal agencies, have been creating contingency plans in case of, and expecting, civil war. I have been talking about the real possibility of riots and/or civil war related to the election. However, I’ve never been able to confirm first-hand of law enforcement actually taking preparation steps…and proving it to be true.

Well, that changed.

I can now tell you from first-hand information that law enforcement agencies are in-fact purchasing massive amounts of riot and civil disturbance equipment and supplies. They are expecting riots of some scale related to the Presidential election. And they are very concerned about rioting potential.

I spoke with the person in a very, very large agency who actually is responsible for purchasing the gear and equipment. It is true and real…they are expecting and planning for it. And they expect more issues if KH is declared the winner.

What are those “issues”? I am not going to say because I don’t want to jeopardize my source nor do I want a visit from any unwanted…ahhhhhhh…folks dressed in black.

So what does this mean to you?

I am not sure to be 100% honest with you…mostly because I don’t know your situation or your intentions. For me…

1. I will not be attending any political gatherings for the foreseeable future…or ever again.
2. I will put my Situational Awareness on ‘high’ around crowds in public.
3. I will ensure that I carry but stay hyper-aware to not use unless given absolutely no alternative.
4. I will be highly skeptical of any ‘news’ releases or statements regarding the election.
5. I will be slow to respond to any adverse ‘news’ releases or statements regarding the election.
6. I will complete AHT’s check lists at least 10-days prior to the election.
7. I will have both vehicles and spare fuel cans full at least 2-days prior to the election.

So there you have it…pray, plan, prepare, practice.
