The real reason these things never make it to the suburbs

Suburban folk actually vote. In droves.
Politicians on both sides are willing to let these things spiral out of control in the cities when it suits their purposes.
If it threatens families that consistently vote, they would tamp it down ruthlessly.

It's way simpler than that. Rioters would all get closed casket funerals.

That’s why rioters only talk shite about going to the suburbs and never make it out to the suburbs. Do want to come home in a fuking body bag. Boys you better keep your asses on 3rd street fuking with the cops

People in the burbs would shoot to protect their property and family.
The goal of policing in these situation is to try to contain it in areas and prevent it from going into areas that they don’t want it to go

Rifles and unfamiliar territory. The small neighborhood armory on my dead end street would make a Marine fire team nervous.

It's also difficult from a logistical pov to quickly move a large mob to most suburbs

Simpler than that — at least in Alabama. They tend to have guns and know how to use them.

Yeah breaking into and stealing from target when nobody is going to fight you is very different than entering a mans home who may have wife and child and will likely fight you to the death with their bare hands must less if they are even remotely prepared for a home intruder.

People keep saying this, but in the many riots in American history, have they ever really extended into the suburbs? I don't think any of the 1968 riots did.

People in the burbs work for a living and will protect their money, family and wealth. Shoot to kill would be rampant.

Troop numbers and territory

This is why Cobb County won't let MARTA in.

That’s a big reason. Limited public transportation.
