So... Are all the black folks set to riot on Wednesday?

[WhoIsNumberNone]

A couple of months back I was lurking on a certain right wing forum, and I found a post inviting speculation on the level of liberal violence to be expected in the wake of the inevitable Romney win.

In between various mastrubatoric posts about the Second Amendment and the quantities and calibers of ammunition they were stockpiling, I found this:

I personally think there will be violence regardless of who wins. If Obama wins the inner cities will riot in celebration and burn and loot. If Romney wins the inner cities will riot in protest and burn and loot.

The reason it caught my eye was that I clearly remember right wingers posting the same dire prediction over and over -almost word for word- (as well as a number of other, much more fanciful predictions) on Craig's List back in 2008. They must have been so disappointed when it didn't happen...

I wonder if the black people in the Republican Alternate Universe actually did have a 'celebration riot'? Probably happened right after RAU Obama came and took all the white peoples' guns away...

1. Only if there is a coup d'etat on Teusday.

(and it won't just be black folk, it will be brown, and white, and native american...)

2. Here's a video of the riot in my neighborhood after Obama won in 2008.

If by "riot" they mean a spontaneous eruption of peaceful jubilation.

3. Probably this counts as a riot in their tiny little minds

4. Another myth exploded. What will they do with the ammo, kill themselves?

5. they have been busy "prepping" for the riots

That means laying in supplies, setting up neighborhood perimeters to keep the "urban hip hop gangs" out -- those gangs that are coming to rape and loot ya know.

9. That quote totally works provided they confused black people with Canadians and Obama with hockey.

10. LOL

You gotta love that their irrational reasoning because it covers all bases though. Romney wins = RIOT; Obama wins = RIOT

Minds will be blown no matter what.

Of course, I always wished that Herman Cain won the R nomination if not for any other reason BUT to watch RWers and TeaPottiers heads explode at the thought of having to pick between two men of color on the ballot.
