I have a feeling they’ll head for the suburbs, exurbs and rural areas this time, thinking that Mr. Obama in the White House will keep them from being punished for looting, mayhem, rape and carjacking. Will we acquiesce or fight?


A whole lot of what I like to call “saloon courage” mentality going on in here. If they move their rioting, looting, etc., to the suburbs, rural areas, they aren’t going to be empty handed. They will be armed to the teeth. And it doesn’t take large numbers to cow a large population. What percentage of the German population was made up of brownshirts? Very small, yet they cowed a much larger population into submission. Same for the Communists when they first gained control of the Soviet Union.

I don't see that working out for them. They're out-numbered in the general population by about 8-1, but only seem to be able to operate effectively in situations where the have about a 5-1 advantage. As far as being "armed to the teeth", if the come out to the rural areas they'll be taking pistols to a deer rifle and shotgun fight.
