Is there going to be social unrest if Obama fails to get elected?

Asked by rojo (24179points) November 1st, 2012

I tuned into conservative talk radio this morning (I do this if I am feeling particularly upbeat and need to knocked down a peg or two) and learned that there is a rumor going around that if Obama fails to get a second term there is going to be widespread rioting, looting and mayhem.
The lady that called in about this sounded like she was in tears and only moments away from a complete breakdown. She wanted reassurance that the National Guard and Army were on alert to jump in and protect the citizenry when this happened.
The talk show host (Buster something I believe) told her that although he too had heard that this would happen that he believed that it was all only a part of your “typical liberal scheme” to intimidate people. He said it was a common liberal practice to instill fear into the populace to get them to vote for who they thought should be in office.
Have you heard about the planned riots? Are you prepared either to participate or repel? Have you been instilling fear and terror into people? Is there a dress code or is it pillage as you are?
