Flattening Curve, Italy Now Grapples With Looters, Riots

As Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte fights to hold Italian society together through a crippling nationwide lockdown, the depressed south is turning into a powder keg.

Police have been deployed on the streets of Sicily’s capital, Palermo, amid reports gangs are using social media to plot attacks on stores. A bankrupt ferry company halted service to the island, including vital supplies of food and medicines. As the state creaks under the strain of the coronavirus pandemic, officials worry the mafia may be preparing to step in.

Preventing unrest in the so-called Mezzogiorno, the underdeveloped southern region that’s long lagged behind the wealthy north, has become the government’s top priority, according to Italian officials who asked not to be named discussing the administration’s strategy.

  2. Coming soon to a town near you.
    The ONLY reason it hasn't happened in Baltimore as yet is due to the deployment of over 600 National Guard in West Baltimore.
    Officially (and what our government wants us to believe), they are there "to assist in delivering necessary medical supplies".
    The truth?
    The truth is they are patrolling and stationed on virtually every corner in that part of town.
    The local CVS (looted three times during the latest riot), has a permanent, 'round the clock contingent of at least 20 National Guard stationed there 24/7.
    It'll be here soon enough.
    Lock your cars. Lock your doors. Keep the firearms at the ready.
    We ain't seen nuthin' yet!

  5. Half or more of the ones doing the looting never worked a day in their life anyway, so that's no excuse.

    The next time your friends make a Baltimore run, have them look under the Jones Falls Expressway bridge off of Lombard, and report back to you what they see.
    You won't see it on the news. My ex has an apartment overlooking that area. She sends pictures.
    We are NOT making this up!
