And when it happens, who do you think is going to eat?

Britain has ensured that the big, mean and strong will eat. And those with "illegal guns."
And certainly the military and police maintaining martial law once the anarchy starts. That's the whole idea. Maybe Tony Blair's religious tolerance institute will convince Britons that it's God's punishment for the slave trade. They've been changing names of streets honoring slave-ship mariners, even the Beatles' Penny Lane is under attack. Figuratively speaking, soon maybe literally.
What a country.
Sic transit gloria mundi. Thus pass the glories of the world.

No, no, no! They are facing "chaos", not "anarchy". BIG difference. The Rulers will not go away, but will still rule over the chaos.

Who will eat? I'm sure everyone will be eating, just some will be eating far better then the rest.
The rich will be just fine as they always seem to do. The military will be the first to be feed but no extras. Police and government parasites will have to work it out for themselves but more than likely will receive some sort of help.

Not just who eats, but who gets eaten. . . The "Long Pork" will become as fashionable as the main course at a Donner Party picnic. There will be whole gangs of Albert Packers roaming around literally "seeking whom they would devour."

To paraphrase Eliot,

"This is the way the world ends,
This is the way the world ends,
This is the way the world ends,
Not with a bang but a cannibal's fart."

Danged clever of those Iranian (opec) shills. They knew we and several other countries were dependant enough on oil they could literally starve us by taking away the means, not only to transport, but plow the fields as well. They don't need nukes. They'll just wait till we're out of gas and pick us off.

A truckers' strike would accelerate things nicely .. like the one starting today in Spain over the high price of fuel.

Good point about chaos vs. anarchy. Actually, good points, everyone.

"Alferd Packer. Hinsdale County's most famous tourist."

Ah, of course, I sit corrected. I knew that, too, just a careless typo.

Next I will get an email from the Cannibal Anti-Defamation League touting the health benefits of "the other, OTHER white meat." ;-)

What's does an unarmed vegan do when confronted by a hungry cannibal? Try to convince him of how unhealthy eating meat is?
