Bs. Our generation is lazy. They aren't going to bother rioting, hell most can't even bother to hit the gym.

Personally I'm 50/50 on the whole riot thing but I lean more to "no" because I don't think many people (whether they're lazy or not) will stand up against the police, military, or government to get what they want. The Government and the media pretty much has most people in our country shook or is able to distract them or keep them subordinate enough so that an event of the scale will not happen or be kept to a minimum.
