...with the vehicle's fire extinguisher, punched him and stole his wallet. Another fired a shotgun into him at close range. As a blood-soaked Denny called for help, he was hit with beer bottles and karate-kicked in the head. The whole macabre scene, like a mirror-image replay of the King beating, was broadcast live on a local TV station. Denny was eventually rescued by four black bystanders and taken to a hospital, where he underwent four hours of brain surgery...

Ethnic conflicts, especially in the south, would be more likely to escalate to all-out war. And a Russian-dominated central army might invite a replay of the disaster that has befallen Yugoslavia, where the supposedly federal army is in reality a Serbian army...
