VCF0811 R Placement: Urban Unrest Scale

QUESTION:
---------
There is much discussion about the best way to deal with the problem
of urban unrest and rioting.  Some say it is more important to use all
available force to maintain law and order -- no matter what results.

unemployment that give rise to the disturbances.
Where would you place yourself on this scale, or haven't you thought
much about this?  (7-POINT SCALE SHOWN TO R)
