>>Riots are what obama is threatening, too. If we don’t re-elect him there will be riots. And frankly, not much would be done to stop them so we’d all best be prepared to protect ourselves.

I see that the word ‘cool’ has now been added to the ever growing list of racist, dog whistle code words.

Big Blunder - 'dog' is considered racist... when used by a white person. When blacks say 'dawg' it's OK...

Think of it as a thought crime... a 'word crime' ... whatever silly liberal elites call it.

I'm afraid that they'll over play their hand with the riots this time.>

I went back to the record about the King riots. I remember the whole debacle and it is hard to to realize it was twenty years ago. I do know that the MSM was absolutely culpable in much of this matter. The replays were shown literally hundreds of times.

For those that might want a little more background, it was one George Holliday who filmed the police arrest of King. He was an immigrant from the Argentine. Mr Holliday got 500 dollars from the local T/V station for the film. He later sued for more money. Ah, noble civic minded George.

The press played down the brutal permanent damage to truck driver Denny. Rarely shown as thugs dragged him out of his truck. A black citizen rescued him.

I sincerely hope and pray that "wiser heads will prevail". A threatened indictment of Sharpton and company might sober them. A fat lot they care about any Trayvon Martins out there. A fair chance things will blow over though. (Imho)

My husband grew up outside of L.A. He said the “riots” were nothing in the magnitude the media depicted them. He said they used camera angles to the maximum advantage to make them look much worse than they were. His father talked with an older black man who referred to the rioting group as “a bunch of young bucks” just wanting to stir it up. Yeah, damage was done, but the media is at fault for making it appear exponentially worse than it was.

With the MSM calling us and any opposition to communists racists, domestic terrorists and what have you, the weaklings (and there are many) will try to prove otherwise, therefore, they become hostages.

I know I have been harping on the MSM for ages, but it’s the most dangerous domestic enemy of all who are well armed with the brainwashing megaphones.

If we don’t succumb, the communist miscalculation of resorting to violence will save this Republic when we end it and knock out the MSM, period.

Rioting and violence is all they understand. It’s no wonder so many blacks gravatate toward the religion of pieces. Yeah, that sounds racist but that’s what I’m seeing more and more every day.

On a related note, yesterday I made the mistake of trying to watch FOX and remembered why I turned them off 4 years ago. Shepard Smith was all in a tizzy over the KKK wanting to adopt a highway and oooooooh! what if they wore their robes while picking up trash. I didn’t see any of the other FOX anchors on with him crying racist. But then racisism these days is a one way street. Ok, I’ll step down off my soapbox.
