Police fear riots if Barack Obama loses US election

Also, if they keep the phony “he already won” crap going, people will feel cheated if he doesn’t win. If the media had any sense of decency, if they cared at all for their country, they would stop playing such dangerous games.

What goes "click..click..click..click..click?"

Now they are trying to intimidate us to vote for Obama with threats like this

if you don’t you’re racist

Law enforcement officials say the intense public interest and historic nature of the vote could lead to violent outbreaks if people are unhappy with the results, encounter problems casting their ballots or suspect voting irregularities.

If Obama loses, there will be riots because his constituency is "unhappy with the results."

The bit about "encounter problems casting their ballots" or "suspect voting irregularities" is more intellectual dishonesty from the media and offering an excuse in advance for violence.

The voting fraud is overwhelming of Acorn and Democrat origin, but the media will strain to find examples of Democrats with some trivial or contrived complaint (butterfly ballots, etc.) to make a pretended moral equivalency of "voting irregularities" and simultaneous cover for Rat fraud and excuse rioting.

There will be riots in the same places if he wins. If he loses the rioters will say it's because "they've been cheated by the oppressors", if he wins it's because "now we can show them!".

Still, I do not think there will be many riots, and they won't last long. But I haven't been on the streets where I could read it more accurately for over six months now.

I’ve got a bet with a guy on that. Easiest $10 I’ll ever make. Tried to get him to go $50!

I’m getting a little tired of the threats. Quit talking and just do it. If they want to riot like savages then go ahead and burn their communities to the ground if it makes them feel better. I don’t care. Just don’t ask for my sympathy when they are forced to live in a burned out neighborhood with no jobs and, above all, don’t ask for my help or money to rectify the damage they cause.

Police fear expect riots

The police don't get paid to "fear". They, like all of us 2nd Amendment types, just deal with it.

[WorkingClassFilth]

I won’t say anything to be precise, but I currently work in a position very close to a metropolitan government. I have been in the police related areas many times. Since the RNC, this community police force has not stood down it’s preparedness or stored it’s civil riot munitions. SWAT practice and tactical training is at similar levels to the RNC phase.

Just sayin’.

[Andy from Chapel Hill]

If the Obama people think this will intimidate whites to vote for Obama to avoid riots, think again.

Likely it will add a point or two to McCain and result in a spike in sales of ...

“...They, like all of us 2nd Amendment types, just deal with it...”

Exactly. I have the means to deal with goons.

[Joan Kerrey]

so if he gets in the White House everybody’s going to be happy.

“riots if Barack Obama loses”

Who cares?

[PGR88]

Get ready, because he WILL lose!

[La Enchiladita]

All they’ll do is burn down their own neighborhoods... so, fine.

[Boagenes]

I’ll take the risk. McCain is going to win.

[Oatka]

It won’t happen, but it’s too bad the mayors of certain cities won’t come out and say, “The police have been ordered to shoot looters on sight and if any National Guard units have to be called up, they will be given ball ammunition, with the same instructions.”
