I don't know. The Media called for a riot with Rodney King and look what happened.

So there is a chance of some rioting.

The mood in America is ugly right now for many reasons.Mostly economic.Throw race in the presidential election and...yes mass riots could occur in the cities,IMO.

I don't expect any actual riots to occur. The disenfranchised aren't really known for their vast surplus of motivation as it is, and they've already had their token victory. If I am wrong, at least it sorts out the messy business of target acquisition on both sides.

Genius deduction. I agree and wish I had written this simple but eleoquent statement.

The truth is blacks couldn't perform a real riot if they wanted to. Between further segregating themselves by driving the other races off because of their bigotry, and the tens of millions of Hispanic immigrants who would love the opportunity to put the immigration debate to rest; it would be suicidal for the African American community to riot. Heck it would be bad for them if even a handful of African American's acted like idiots if President Obama loses.

Me? I could care less. I live in a semi rural area with the next small city being a mostly Caucasian/Hispanic mix so no real worries about that garbage. The only real problem with the new arrivals(regardless of legal/illegal status) is that they are from New York and New Jersey mostly. So they act like people from there act. After 5 years hey mellow out and act semi decent enough so no worries(yes I think very poorly of "people" who live in New York and New Jersey).

Nothing will happen. The same thing was said in 2008.

Then the sun rose and people went on with their daily business.
