CIRS – Civilians In Riot Situations

July 2021, KZN, South Africa: you are on your way home and suddenly find yourself boxed in by vehicles and people, all looking agitated and angry. You can sense the anger and fear, your sixth sense is telling you this is totally wrong. You cannot move forward or backwards. Your breathing becomes faster, your heart is beating super fast, your adrenaline levels are at an all-time high and your thoughts keep running to your family – are they okay? Where are they? What is going on?

The 2021 Riots have kicked off!!!

And you have been caught unawares. What has always been a distant event in South Africa has suddenly slammed home and came walking into your suburb, into your home. We all know the rest, the impact it had on communities, the economy and more. We all know that nationwide riots have suddenly become part of our everyday reality. Add to that the threat of a National Grid collapsing and you have the makings of a dystopian event.

RIOTS ARE AN EVERY DAY REALITY IN SOUTH AFRICA
