November 2, 201213 yr May sound like a ridiculous question but will there be riots if Romney loses the election. I have saw several stories on the web about possible riots if the President loses the election. So conversely if Romney loses will there also be riots across America? I know in 1860 after the Republican Abraham Lincoln won the election there was a riot or something (for the next 5 years), but has there been other riots after a presidential election in the last 150 years.
November 2, 201213 yr I haven't seen anything about riots if the President loses. I doubt there will be either way.
November 2, 201213 yr I have no doubt tables will be flipped over at the country club. The help will be sweeping up caviar and mopping up the undrank champaign.
November 2, 201213 yr I haven't seen anything about riots if the President loses. I doubt there will be either way. If he loses there will in be looting in the streets, I would bet all of the money in my bank account on that one. It may not happen in every city but there will/would be looting and people in the streets. We will know for certain in less than a week.

I doubt there will be either way.I hope you are right but there have been several reports to the contrary...maybe your invite to the riot is still in the mail, could be why you've not heard of it yet » New Threats to Riot if Obama Loses Election Alex Jones' Infowars: There's a war on for your mind! Threats To Riot If Obama Loses Flood Internet! - YouTube NWV News - Obama supporters make death threats, riots, if their President loses I don't understand why anyone would be threatening to riot over this election.
November 2, 201213 yr Author There are several stories out there from different sources, I'll coceed that some of these stories come from right leaning sites but I don't see any from the left stating there would be riots if Romney loses.
November 2, 201213 yr I don't know but a couple of the tea party types I'm friends with on facebook have posted a picture tonight talking about a revolution if Obama wins.
November 2, 201213 yr Author I agree there are extremist and people unable to have civil discourse with the opposition view on both side of the political spectrum. But is there a better chance of riots if the President wins or if Romney wins?
November 2, 201213 yr There will be riots if Obama loses, it will give those a reason to do a crime. And they will get away with it so we can appease them since it unfair and racist if we try to prosecute them.
November 2, 201213 yr There will be riots if Obama loses, it will give those a reason to do a crime. And they will get away with it so we can appease them since it unfair and racist if we try to prosecute them. You're implying that African Americans will riot if Obama loses...because they inherently want to, but they don't have a reason "to do a crime". DO YOU REALIZE HOW RACIST THAT IS?!
November 2, 201213 yr There are several stories out there from different sources, I'll coceed that some of these stories come from right leaning sites but I don't see any from the left stating there would be riots if Romney loses. I've read a lot of articles about Romney signs being destroyed, burnt, etc. I don't know if there will be riots, but I bet there will be some property damage, especially on college campuses.
November 2, 201213 yr Author FWIW protesting does not equal rioting...I think there will be protest form both side if their candidate loses. Riots with damage, injuries and vandalism are an entirely different thing however.

This afternoon, a friend an I were discussing this possibility in regard to Obama losing. I think that is possible, but it depends on the closeness of the results. If ROmney loses, I don't think we have anything to worry about...accept maybe a revolution.
