People devising looting sprees via Twitter in wake of Hurricane Sandy may find armed resistance ....

Scores of people are using the social networking site Twitter to plan looting sprees in the wake Hurricane Sandy, though many of them - if they decide to follow through on their threat - could wind up facing the business end of a firearm.

In fact, the New York National Guard is already preparing for any eventuality, including civil disobedience and looting, according to reports that say the state is planning on deploying nearly 1,200 soldiers for those, and other, purposes.

Whether the looting will take place individually or in gangs remains to be seen, but given the fairly recent phenomenon of using social media sites like Twitter and Facebook to plan and execute "flash mobs," it's something authorities are taking seriously.

Now, the social sites are being used to plan looting sprees in the wake of what many forecasters and meteorologists are saying could be a storm of "historic" proportions, especially in terms of the damage Sandy may leave behind.

Here are a few of the tweets seen thus far, as assembled by InfoWars.com:

"Bout to do some looting when this hurricane finally hits....gonna get a new laptop and tv...this hurricane might be the best thing to happen."

"If this hurricane gets real bad I'm looting stores! i always wanted to do that."

"I'm gonna go looting once this hurricane hits Utica."

"Has #HurricaneSandy made landfall yet? My bitch a** is ready to go looting!"

"helllll yeah I'm gonna go looting after the storm hits."

"Who wants to go looting with me when Sandy hits?! I need some new s**t!"

Of course they are serious! These are the same people that jump innocent tourists and beat the hell out of them for fun. Looters should be shot.

Do they seriously expect they will have access to social network websites when the storm passes? Electric, phone, and cable service will likely be down.

How do these morons not get it??? If the cops are not there to stop you from stealing and destroying property there are no cops there to keep others from blowing your stupid a$$ away.

In some parts of NY and phillie, the homeowner with the gun stands more of a chance of being prosecuted.

Great, the national guard can then stand and watch as the governor and president tell them to stand down.

The looters know that in numbers, the cops and guards will be told to observe but not act. We see it over and over. Even if they beat whitey, they will do nothing.

Mayor Bloomberg will want stricter gun control laws instead of allowing law abiding citizens to protect their property!

“Over 90 percent of crimes committed by young people are done so in a group,” Scott Decker, a professor of criminology at Arizona State University, told the news service.”

So who are these “young people”? Amish? Jewish? Mormans?

Sad to say, but it will happen and probably won't be covered by the MSM.

If Obama had a looter for a son he’d look just like him.

Now, if he looked like Romney, the Holder DOJ would come down on him like a ton of bricks.

Welcome to re-racist America.
