Americans are generally pussies these days so I doubt if Joe and Clara from Indiana are going to get out of line, but in the cities where you already have a high crime rate, I wouldn't want to be there.

For sure. If you live in Los Angeles or New York any big major city the level of unrest will likely be much higher than other places.
Most likely there would be small pockets of unrest here and there and within 48 hours the government would have a solution and all would be fine at least for the moment.
The best thing anyone can do is have enough food and water on hand to last them 48 hours and just wait it out. But that is common sense no matter what. There can be weather/natural events that can knock out power for days or cause problems where there is no civil unrest, but having a flashlight and some extra food on hand could come in very handy.
