There are plenty of good reasons for making Barack Obama a one-term president, among them his adding of $5 trillion to the national deficit and presiding over the slowest recovery since World War II. But reason goes out the window along with common sense for dozens of Twitter followers who have posted threats to riot if Romney wins.
Twitchy offers up an assortment of tweets that center on this theme. The majority of them are in black eye dialect. Here is a sampling:
I Heard Mitt Romney , Tryna Take Away Food Stamps , If He Do ."IMA START A RIOT , IMA START A RIOT" @ThugPickles
If Romney win Imma start riot! IG: Mocha_21 (@SpoilMe24_7) @SpoilMe24_7

If ROMNEY GETS IN THE WHITE HOUSE ...U MIGHT AS WELL KILL ME NOW .....CAUSE ITS GONNA BE A MOTHERF**KIN RIOT !!! @J_freakyArtemis
Twitchy notes that a number of the tweets have since been deleted, and one poster has apologized for his tweet, claiming it was a joke. And an hilarious one at that.

Seriesly ?
There are 4 things that are useless to you: altitude above you, runway behind you, fuel still back at the pump, and ammo you didn’t buy.
God, I hope so.
God, I hope so.
I tend to agree with you. One way or the other they will burn it down. And it will be Obamas excuse to declare a national emergency. IMHO
“Yup, if Romney takes all the free cell phones back.”
That is not going to happen. Freebies have never been repealed. Newt Gingrich was able to roll them back in the 90s but never have freebies been repealed.
The RINOs want to be reelected.
Yes.
What the hell are you talking about?
Regular people actually know that that photo was cropped to hide the surrounding blocks that the Amish failed to burn and destroy the first time.
Actually, the 67 Dee-troit riots also were confined to a small area. I can remember suburbanites expecting the rioters to march up Woodward Ave. and were busy getting their guns ready. However, the miscreants just trashed their own hoods.
If they do riot it will happen in their own HOODS. And we all know which HOODS those are.
Frankly I could care less if they destroy there own turf. Burn em all down I say, would help clean out the trash.
If there is any perceived advantage by the thugs from Chicago, you can count on it. Even if they are are paid SEIU members.
You need to move out ASAP.
I wouldn’t at all be surprised to see at least a few riots. You can name the places in advance: Detroit and LA come immediately to mind.
I notice that a few of my posts have not been showing up. Not sure why that is... Anyway, I do think there could be rioting. I’m concerned about it, but not concerned enough that I’m going to hide under my bed or anything. I do think it might happen, and if it does the media will do everything they can to avoid reporting it. Even if it happens, it will only last for a few days, and then it will be over. Most of us will be smart enough to know how to avoid getting caught up in that kind of nonsense. They will only be hurting themselves.
I think there could be some rioting. The media won’t cover it, or if they have to they will try to pass it off as something else. I live in an area where things could get a little ugly, and it does concern me, but not to the point that I am going to hide under my bed. But I do think it could happen. If it does, it will last for a few days, and then it will end on its own. Chances are if it does happen the rioters will only manage to hurt themselves. Most of us will expect it and will do our best to stay away from it all as best as we can.
........way too cold for riots......

BINGO!
No, just some sullen people and some random acts of violence.
