Sure but i think there is this fear that once it's "Officially" declared that may be the signal thousands of chuds are waiting for to gear up and go to town on their neighbors.

I don't think this is what they're worried about. That's just bringing back the Klan.

I think, as mundane as it sounds, what they are worried about is bureaucratic capacity. Not in the sense of state agencies particularly, but the entire mass of corporations, NGOs, and state institution which operate within this legal regime. As a property owner, it gives you tremendous reach. Is your tenant is behind on rent? Effectively all you need to do is make one phone call and there will be armed goons busting down their door. But not even. You're not making that phone call, the management company you hired is, for a cut. You effectively shake down hundreds of tenants every month and you don't even need to lift a finger.

This is what they are afraid of losing. This ability to delegate violence through a dozen layers of intermediaries and plausible deniability while still maintaining control. The end of the US Republic will significantly curtail this power. It won't be enough to simply hold the deed to all the water in California and conjure an army of lawyers to explain to the judge that they need to conjure an army of cops to arrest you, then conjure an army of corrections officers to slip moldy sandwiches into your cage. It will require old school gangster shit. Whoever carves out a position of power for themselves will need to be much more personally connected with the violence. There are plenty of violent people (powerful ones, even) who would be just fine with this, but overall it would be a major loss in the centralization of power needed to maintain an empire.
