Here's my prediction:

There will be a lot less whites rioting if Obama wins than there will be blacks rioting if he loses. Ponder that one for a while!

That may be, but it doesn't change reality of the situation.

Call this thread what you will, but I don't think anyone can honestly say rioting would never happen if he isn't elected. If he is elected, what do people have to riot about?

And if you think about it, it's only labeled a race riot because it's mostly minorities that populate the major inner cities where they would most likely start. If those occupants were predominantly white, it would just be called a Riot. The word Race wouldn't even be uttered in the same sentence.

Point being, you have lowlife POSes out there rioting of every color trying to profit off of the chaos, and the media labeling it Race War for the publicity and the ratings.

Doesn't matter though, short of fixed election or a well placed bullet, America better be ready for Obama come Jan... I can't see any way that he won't win this election.

Obama supporters have mentioned riots already if McCain wins. Yeah we are fearing the mess we will have to clean up.

I'm sorry if you got the impression that this thread is about fear. Fear of anyone or anything. Actually this thread is about a topic that the media is talking and writing about. That is why I posted links to stories that talked about this subject.

RealClearPolitics-Liberals' Warnings About Obama Loss May Prove Self-Fulfilling

I don't write the articles. I'm just starting a conversation about current events.

I don't have an issue with Obama's race. It's his politics.

Good luck getting through to them Wittom, remember these are the same guys who think Obama is good for this country. It's clear rational thinking left them long ago

Ignorance knows no race. It just seems to favor some races more than others it seems. Dammit, no equality there either.

Stupid people riot, stupid isn't a race. Same goes for riots after your team loses a soccer match, World Series, the Stanley cup or any sporting event. Heck, some morons even riot when their team wins. Let the idiots beat each other up. Hopefully after it is done there will be a few less idiots. Some people just don't have any common sense.

i think its totally rational to think that there will be some extremist and loons who will riot or call people racist if obama loses this election, they are obviously already talking about it. i can already see al sharpton and rev wright and jesse jackson "cashing in" if obama loses. but lets hope that never happens, no matter who wins or loses. i hope we are better than that. but just in case i am thinking about getting a shotgun or m4 w/ the 7.62 conv kit for home defense :P

Doesn't matter though, short of fixed election or a well placed bullet, America better be ready for Obama come Jan... I can't see any way that he won't win this election.
i think your right. although with all this ACORN crap going on in the swing states i am beginning to wonder if the election is gonna be rigged for obama. i just want whoever wins not to have a cloud over the win like bush did in 2000. thats not good for the country either.

but remember, we still have an oct suprise to come, whether that be a terror attack(hope not!!), some scandal like a tape of a candidate saying/doing something bad or an affair or whatever. it seems theres always something that either party holds on to until a couple weeks before the election.

What did you read to think this? Its out of fear for rioting, and the track record of starting riots when a certain group does not get its way...

Jeezuz Kriest guys...

Give it a rest...

Obama is gonna be the next President. No amount of secondary or tertiary attempts to undermine the man is gonna stop him. Nor will stirring the angst or willingness of some line straddling whites to momentarily turn their backs on their positive feelings about Obama, due to an strong but largely ignored undercurrent of racist ideology- silently (or not so much so anymore) screaming, "let's band together in case they (black people) riot" BS.

Will their be riots of Obama loses? I doubt it. A lot of "I told you so's..." but no riots.

Will there be celebration if Obama wins? Yes, you better believe it. The celebration won't be because Obama's going to get all black people high paying jobs, or Government profit-sharing checks. It will be because there will be evidence America may have really turned the corner in race relations in this country- at least the majority have. And, because we'll have evidence that black people really can be anything they want to be.

Be part of the change- don't rail against it, and for more of the same.

Vote for Obama!

Make sure you brush afterwards...

THen, come on and get on board.


Say it with me,

O-ba-ma, O-ba-ma, O-ba-ma

Now say, President Obama...

And, the few race riots that have happened, have been when a black has been wronged by a white person or group of white people (Rodney King) society or government, in a public manner- and got away with it.

Rodney King was beaten by cops, on the ground and still struck 37 times, and the cops got away with it.

Cops in New York shot a kid what, 41 times- and got away with it.

I think it's times like that- that get people, black people up in arms.

Paris, TX and Jena, LA- those weren't "riots" those were "rallies/protests".
There's a difference.
