    Persons in the lowest state of discontent (that is, in the residual state) are, in general, nonparticipants in the riot because the residual discontent is not ventable. There are no states of discontent lower than the residual state; thus it is not possible to vent the emotional energy of residual discontent except by actually reducing the environmental constraints.
