Pledge of Action to Stop A Stolen Election

"I remember the stolen presidential election of 2000 and I am willing to take action in 2004 if the election is stolen again. I support efforts to protect the right to vote leading up to and on Election Day, November 2nd. If that right is systematically violated, I pledge to join nationwide protests starting on November 3rd, either in my community, in the states where the fraud occurred, or in Washington DC."

I'm just hoping for a bit of target practice.

I wish no lasting harm to any of them. Me, I'd be happy to watch a few of 'em get a few doses of medium-velocity concentrated skunk musk. Woo doggies, that stuff stinks. It's like someone burning a pencil eraser and holding it under your nose.

The left has no idea who they are screwing with...and if they keep prodding the sleeping bear they are in for a very very rude awakening...if they choose revolt and anarchy they will feel the thunder and fire...foolish foolish people to forment such talk...

Stonedog: Lock and load!

HarryCaul: In the words of their candidate..."bring it on".

Cogadh na Sith: S'right... We've got the guns.

excalibur21: They should be afraid.

rem22-250: Bring Em on!.....I'm kind of getting excited now!...:)

Stopislamnow: Bring it you godless leftist commies

DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet: Bring it, you leftist punks.

[Travis McGee]

There are certain parallels.

[nopardons]

Dennis is quite right in that.

[MKM1960]

We can possibly look into a 3-4 hour window of opportunity. Will that be enough time?

[bootless]

Hey, you know who signed that statement on Nov3.us?

Doug La Follette - Wisconsin Secretary of State

Is that legal?

[LeoWindhorse]

oh...I am soooo afraid....
not!

[Al Simmons]

So long as Bush wins, the Democrats can burn down all of Detroit and L.A. and I'll sleep soundly!!!!!

[GiveEmDubya]

I would rather deal with the riots then a Kerry administration.

Exactly. Just the words "Kerry administration" together make me ill.

Stop this, America! Re-elect Bush today!

[ladyinred]

Excuse me, I am freaking sick of this LIE from the PIT that W did not WIN the election. He darn well did, and even GORE himself knows it. What LIARS!

[stopillegalimmigration]

Pretty bold for a party that has not yet done away with 2nd Ammendment yet.

[Prime Choice]

Dennis Prager was comparing the leftists of today to the leftists who brought down the Weimar Republic, which brought Hitler to power.

It is an extremely valid comparison, especially considering today's Leftists' thug tactics and threats of mob violence.

God help this nation if they prevail. Then we will need to hide our guns until their fascist regime can be overthrown.

[Jaysun]

The suggestion, of course, is that there indeed will be riots if John F. Kerry's boyhood dreams of ascending to his rightful position as ruler of the universe are squashed by the result of today's voting.

Splendid. That way we'll know where all of the criminals, perverts, and schizophrenics are.

[rem22-250]

"It is time for these useless idiots to grow up and accept responsibility. Hell some of them are in their sixties for Godsake..."



(Nodding head in agreement) you just have to visit the DU board and see the mindset of some of these people. (Now a head shake in amazement at their way of thinking)

[antaresequity]

A few greasy hippies.

LOL...or would that be "A few greased hippies"?

[Mo1]

Doug La Follette - Wisconsin Secretary of State
Is that legal?

No sure ... but I'm guessing it could cause him problems should the riot the streets

[talmand]

I'd be more concerned of vandalism brought upon people's homes who have Bush Cheney signs in the yard. And of course this will mean an excellent chance that someone will get shot which of course will spiral downward into the whole "violent war-mongers who shoot 'peaceful' demonstrators" bit. Wow, double quote in that one. And I'm sure in that case the people shot would be considered victims and the person defending their property will face criminal charges. After all, these people win a big sports event and they riot and destroy their own cities without consequences from the law. They have learned well.

[Mjaye]

We need look no further than the two dimwits who assaulted Ann Coulter with a pie and now refer to themselves as Al Pieda. I forgot how to go retrieve their miserable pictures and post them, but who could forget their pathetic mug shots? These two represent who is gearing up to riot in the streets.
