A few weeks ago, Twitchy reported on Twitter users threatening to riot if President Obama loses to GOP rival Mitt Romney. With four days to go until Election Day, we decided this is a topic worth revisiting. The results of our Twitter searches are not pretty:
If Romney win , me obama and 2 chainz going to start a riot and shoot his a** !—

Those are just the riot threats posted today (Friday November 2nd). It is reasonable to assume that hundreds more were posted prior to today — all of them ignored by a complacent, biased mainstream media.
Interestingly, the threats made today were posted exclusively by supporters of President Obama. We weren’t able to find even one Republican threatening to riot if Mitt Romney loses.
Granted, most of these riot threats were probably made in jest, but a few may be serious. People who do not respect property rights and have little regard for the rules governing civil society have been known to riot over matters of less importance than a presidential election.
Our advice: Be prepared.
who cares??
The cops around here are taking them seriously. They have ppl on standby for Election Night. I’ve been told this by someone that knows a couple of cops personally and they both told him that. One even said he hopes they do. But he hates minorities so I would expect him to say that.
No more Mr. Nice Guy.
I did buy one of those SA FAL kits. Seemed like it was a bargain. It wasn’t. Spare parts only. The Austrian kits shoot better than I can. Tack drivers.
Mini-14 — sure beats empty hands and harsh language.
Just another good reason to vote for Romney. I need moving target practice. But, the people who say they’ll start a riot will burn their own neighborhoods. Guess I’ll just watch on tv.
AND...they're hiring. At least someone is doing good right about now!
This is true. And they especially don’t realize that the FD won’t even approach the scene of a fire until an all clear is given by police. If there’s still violence or weapons fire going on the fire department won’t even get close. Fortunaely I’m far enough outside the “core” that I don’t expect any trouble but will prepare just in case.
(a) Whoever knowingly and willfully deposits for conveyance in the mail or for a delivery from any post office or by any letter carrier any letter, paper, writing, print, missive, or document containing any threat to take the life of, to kidnap, or to inflict bodily harm upon the Democrat President of the United States, the Democrat President-elect, Democrat the Vice President or other officer next in the order of succession to the office of President of the United States, or the Vice President-elect, or knowingly and willfully otherwise makes any such threat against the Democrat President, President-elect, Democrat Vice President or other Democrat officer next in the order of succession to the office of President, or Vice President-elect, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.
(b) The terms “President-elect” and “Vice President-elect” as used in this section shall mean such persons as are the apparent successful Democrat candidates for the offices of President and Vice President, respectively, as ascertained from the results of the general elections held to determine the electors of President and Vice President in accordance with title 3, United States Code, sections 1 and 2. The phrase “other officer next in the order of succession to the office of President” as used in this section shall mean the Democrat person next in the order of succession to act as President in accordance with title 3, United States Code, sections 19 and 20.
I'm pretty sure this is the correct wording. There were public threats on President Bush almost weekly and nobody tried to do anything about it.
I’m glad I have some extra food in the house.
I’m taking my baseball bat to work with me Tuesday night. I don’t think they’d let me in the building with it, but at least it’ll be in my car if things get hairy on the road Wed. morning.
I like that!
I am prepared. And these mindless idiots may get way more than they want...
I predict rioting on a scale this nation has not witnessed since the 60’s.
And it will reflect directly back to the “The One.”
It will help seal his fate as the worst President ever!
It will be an enduring symbol of his FAILED reign.
And how ironic it will be watching “His Lame Duckness” preside over the chaos that “His people” will perpetrate.
I am 100% certain VIOLENT CHAOS will occur after the election of President Mitt Romney.
