Of course you're smart enough to avoid dangerous areas prone to a  
riot, right?

But the very nature of social chaos, riots can occur at a  
moment's notice and have been known to occur in such common  
scenarios as:

  *  Sports team championship loss  
  *  Bad court decision like LA "Rodney King" riots  
  *  Flash mobs like last year's Milwaukee State Fair attack

These very events have led to severe injury and even death where  
there was once a peaceful environment.

If you find yourself caught in a riot, one of the things you want  
to make sure of is that you don't draw attention to yourself.

In other words, rioters who don't feel there will be a  
consequence to their actions, may scan around looking for an easy  
target to attack.

Therefore, you want to be "invisible" to everyone around you.

For example...
  1.  Carry a black, compact hoodie windbreaker in your everyday  
     carry gear so it can instantly be thrown on to disguise  
     yourself or duck into dark areas at night.
  2.  If you're among the rioting crowd, hoot and holler and cuss  
     at the "target" of the mob so you look like one of them.

  3.  Smile.  Sounds weird, but if you look like you're enjoying  
     the violence, the rest of the rioters will instantly assume  
     you're a cohort - not a target.
  4.  Steer clear of storefront windows.  Eventually these stores  
     will catch the eye of looters and you don't want to be  
     caught in a treasure-seeking mob of anarchists.

Becoming "invisible" in a riot is one of the many skills needed  
to know how to escape and evade social chaos.

How you dress and how you act makes a difference and is something  
you need to plan ahead for just in case you're caught up in the  
violence
