What we see occasionally in the news IRL is just a small taste of what's likely in T2K.
Doesn't make it any less distasteful, but we're fooling ourselves if we think everyone's going to maintain a solid grasp on reality and morales after the nukes fly.

I'm with you on this. I believe the majority of humanity has a "Me first" attitude and would rape, rob & murder if there were no or little consequence.
And just to throw a little levity on such a serious subject, I was watching "Doomsday Preppers". They were critiquing an old hippy- leftover flower child type, and told him he needs to practice at least twice a week with whatever weapons he has. He replied "Well, whoever comes here with a weapon will just have to deal with his concience, I'll deal with mine."
