Election demagoguery
Yes, I expect looting and riots in many central USA cities.
I expect that the Democratic party is hoping for major riots in US cities that will scare the he** out of the middle & upper class.
I expect that we will see the Dem's using class warfare arguments to solidify their voter base for the 2012 elections.
I fully expect that the biggest issue on the mind of everyone in the elections will be “...if we re-elect Obama and Democrats will the rioting stop?”
My advice is buy a good large safe or two, have enough firearms and ammunition to protect what you own. Have escape/evacuation options available should rioting come to where you live.
As much as I feel that Glenn Beck is a bit off the deep end, when it comes to pushing crisis; this summer looks like so many organizations and events are trying to create a real crisis.
There has long been a forecast that the US will engage in another civil war :( When I first heard rumors of this idea in the past, I could NEVER imagine any single one of us going against each other in that way, having to literally fight for our own country. Never.
Now? Not so sure. BIG sigh. Very sad, yet very true compilation you have put together of upcoming driving forces and events throwing us all over the edge into madness, once and for all. One can only PRAY that it NEVER comes to actual bloodshed of our own citizens against each other.

Don’t forget, if you are running to the hills, be sure the folks that live in the hills are willing to accept you!
