If this thing starts spreading at that rate the Darren Wilson types in Military and Police are going to use this as an excuse to start rounding up and gunning down people of a certain race.

It won't be "I thought he was reaching for something", it will be "He was uncooperative and started coughing at me".

It happened during Katrina and that was just a Hurricane.
