go read the whole thingThis whole “riot” thing if Barack Hussein Obama should happen to lose: He doesn’t have to lose. Not winning big is plenty enough. Or, as I said before, the “victory parties” will get out of hand. But a lot of high-visibility people have already predicted riots, and that’s pretty much taken as an understanding. I’m figuring that the police departments of many large cities have their contingency plans in place to just pull back out of the usual neighborhoods and let the hubbub take its course.
After all, why risk the lives of officers? it is obvious that the preponderance of perpetrators won’t be punished. We still have clear video tapes of looters in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and nobody’s being prosecuted. And the police know this.
The point, though, is that the idea of the poor, oppressed people rioting has received tacit approval in the media and among many political circles. It’s obvious to me, though, that riots are only allowed if you’re of certain groups. Nobody has said anything about expecting or condoning riots from republicans.
We’re pretty much expected to just show up for work Wednesday morning and get the nation moving, put the groceries in the stores, the clothes on the racks and the cars on the road. Lights are supposed to come on, and the water is supposed to flow, and we’re expected to be good sheep, and yield up our wool and our lives at our master’s whim.?
