    I know there is another thread discussing Minnesota, but it's pretty focused on there an there alone. Figured this might be useful for some folks who have to travel through these other cities.

    Anyhow...if you live in, drive thru, etc NYC, Atlanta, L.A., Chicago, D.C., Denver, Louisville, etc. keep your head on a swivel an be safe.

    They'll have a mighty surprise awaiting them if they direct their ignorance towards me and I'm just trying to navigate peacefully.

    I will NOT be a Reginald Denny.

    I won't antagonize.
    Leave me be.
    Stay away from this cab.
    I'll be on em like a pair of Cactus britches.

    Where is this going on?

    I just picked up south of Atlanta yesterday. As much as I wanted to be lazy, I figured I probably ought to get through there and Birmingham before stopping for the day.

    Got Memphis today... hopefully there's no bull**** going on out in the interstate.

    Police seem to have orders to stand down and let it happen. If your truck is looted you have to let it happen.

    If you get out of the truck and confront them you'll be beaten.
    If you try to drive through them and someone gets hurt you'll go to jail.
    If it happens you're on your own and in a no win situation.

    I wouldn't go near any areas with reported protests or riots for the next month. Why risk it?
