RW Voting for Riots

One of the RW themes this fall is that a Romney win will cause a wave of race riots. I've been seeing this for months, and it has now reached prominent billing on Drudge, which is a coordinated arm of the Republican party. (The second "news" story at the very top is "Will The Election Results Cause Riots?" which is just a RW blog entry)

"Vote for Romney and watch America burn" seems like an odd inducement to vote for Romney, but not to all. Many RW people want riots, emotionally.

They fantasize about riots, the same way they fantasize about bombing Iran. It would be exciting.

They are the ones with guns and ammo. It appears all the violence lately has been directed at the dems. manure dumped in front of the dem Ohio office and yesterday shooting at the Obama colorado office .

They hate the inner city.

They think the riots would be poor black on poor black, immigrant on immigrant.

They hate anyone different and want them to harm each other.

remember, the shooting yesterday of the Obama HQ in Colorado. The piling of manure outside a democratic party HQ in OH... these are not good signs.

They want riots, they want more than riots, Some are ready to take this to the ammo box.

We have been steadily moving in that direction for a while.

Me... I have a well earned allergy to high speed lead.

If riots do happen, they need to realize that rioting will not be confined to the inner city. Transportation to the suburbs is no longer an issue in 2012. They won't be watching it on TV...they'll be seeing it out of their front window. Assclowns.

People who are hungry, and have no home may tend to riot. I have how this will occur on my "American Nightmare" page at my site CommonSenseFor.US

If we descend down this road, fascism is the most likely outcome. They know history and changing demographics are not on their side.
