#1 So "Vote Obama", honky...

#2 Democratic strategists and advocates for black voters say they understand officers wanting to keep the peace, but caution that excessive police presence could intimidate voters.

Yep, yep. That's why the Donks implemented Posse Comitatus, to remove the federal troops from the polling places in the south not to protect civil liberties, but to removed the rights of their fellow citizens, who happen to be black, to vote. Don't look at Iraq folks, where US troops and local security provided the first real 'free' election in generations. Nope, not here. You don't want police authority around to nab that interloper who's trying to vote illegally. Why he/she would get photographed and fingerprinted and won't be trying to do it again that day. Nope, not here.

#3 Thank goodness. And my thanks to the men and women in blue for doing so much to keep us relatively safe here at home.

Slightly off topic, last Fourth of July I saw a surprising number of young troops in uniform strolling about during the concert before the fireworks in pairs. This Fourth, none at all.

#4 Police departments in cities across the country are beefing up their ranks for Election Day, preparing for possible civil unrest and riots after the historic presidential contest.

Quagmire!

#5 that's the only thing those crazy white Republican rioters will understand: the baton to the head!

#7 Democratic strategists and advocates for black voters say they understand officers wanting to keep the peace, but caution that excessive police presence could prevent their efforts to intimidate voters.

Fixed. No Charge.

#8 I think it is insulting to blacks to suggest that they are going to rampage like a bunch of animals. I'm surprised that the AA community doesn't object to the racist slur.

#9 I predict that Obama will lose, there are going to be riots, and as a result there won't be another black or leftist on a presidential ticket for decades.

#10 I agree it's racist, Betty - but I'm not surprised the AA leaders doesn't object.

A lot of them are threatening suggesting it will happen....

What I can't figure out is why decent black folks (and 99% of them are) put up with the shit their self-appointed "leaders" shovel. Black so-called leaders demean the black community all the time. :-(

#11 But if you are OLD ENOUGH to remember Washington D.C. in 1968 and a few other cities such as LA and Detroit in those years.... it becomes a legitimate concern.

#12 I suspect the LAPD could go apeshiat on the protesters. After Rodney King, they purchased a lot of weird equipment and made some downright vicious contingency plans.

The again, if the rioters set one foot into the Korean community, it will be like when the Dakota tried to raid New Ulm, only to meet a heavily barricaded butt load of beer drinking and lederhosen wearing prior service infantrymen who had held the line against Napoleon Bonaparte.

There were a LOT of dead Dakota that day.

#13 Preparing for the riots is the cause of the riots. At least that's my understanding. If there were no preparation for riots there would be no riots.

Ammo up everyone, there's going to be problems on the night of November 4th, 2008 and the days after.

Good luck.

#14 Old enough, hell, Besoeker - I was there. And it was ugly. That was the first time I got shot at. (Luckily I was a college kid and too stupid to realize just how dangerous it was. I think I've got more sense now.)

The dumbest thing was that the assholes that rioted burned the black community and killed black people because they were mad at white people. That's the original "unclear on the concept." >:-(
