Feds Disrupt Skinhead Plot to Assassinate Obama

[preciousjeni]

My father told me yesterday that gun sales are up because people are afraid of what will happen if Obama is elected. I find that hard-to-believe right wing propaganda (based on the source).

It's either that or people are talking serious hooey.

I have seen some right wing sites where people are actually discussing 'stocking up' in case the 'criminal hoodlum element' should decide to do 'harm' in their areas.

But I have to ask tho.....which will incite a riot more?

Obama winning or McCain winning **think about that**

Seriously? Did you really have to go that route?

I have no doubt that there are sickos out there, and it's good that they were able to stop this group of idiots before they hurt someone. But these rumors of right-wingers stocking up is just as ridiculous as the rumors of people leaving the country after Bush was elected the second time (the "I'll leave the country if Bush is elected" people).

My father *suggested* that Obama is going to declare martial law from day one so he can use the police against citizens. Someone told him (or he heard) that gun sales were up because people were going to have to shoot police officers to protect their property. These crazy rumors are getting out of hand. I can't believe my father would even repeat something so ridiculous.

ETA: My father is a staunch McCain supporter.

Your father's comments don't represent the majority of Republicans. The vocal minority is just that, a minority, and doesn't (and shouldn't) speak for the party.

Seriously....and I asked them that same question....realize...that it's all just talk but if you take 10 that are even 'jokingly' talking about this....there are at least 2 that may really follow thru no matter how you cut it. As a matter of fact, pay attention to my last passage, I did say 'discussing'. Hell you got these nuts right here in this article that plotted to kill Obama and how did they meet? ONLINE. These are the nuts that weren't joking!

then...you have this article: http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/...008-10-21.html

did anyone else hear the Clash's "White Riot" when they read that article?

I loled at:

With dreams deferred, can angry whites do what Langston Hughes taught us—to let it fester like a sore, even to let sag like a heavy load? Or will the dream of a perfect streak of white men in the White House, if deferred, cause white people to explode?

Why, oh why, do these nuts have to be from Tennessee??!??
