		<description>Now that the election is over and mercifly the political TV ads come to an end as well.  I am trying to contact as many fellow patriots as possible to respectfully display the US Flag persuant to US Code Title 36, Chapter 10, SS 176 (a), with the union (blue field) down signifying a time of national peril or distress.  I will continue this respectful display of my 1st Amendment Rights untill BHO is removed from office by whatever means.</description>

		<description>Chicago is an island of costal politics, with all it&#039;s blind spots. I believe Daley is convinced Barry O will win. And since the rallys haven&#039;t presented an insurmountable crowd control  problem so far, I don&#039;t think they will Tuesday-IF HE WINS.

Who knows what will happen if he loses, but I&#039;d assume at least minor problems.  

I doubt if any Islamofacists want him dead. They&#039;ll want to cause him to lose face, just like most of the presidents after Ford. The current Bush is the only one who never backed down. Meanwhile, Obama seems ready to, before any  violence.</description>

		<description>Hmmm. I seem to remember a wise man once told me &quot;Know where the attack is coming and have the defense in place.&quot; Actually he told me that about a thousand times, at last count. 

My prediction is there will be riots no matter who wins. Look at what happens in any big city after a World Series win. If Obama wins it will start out as a celebration and quickly devolve to rocks, overturned vehicles and looting. If he loses it simply means the celebration is skipped and the &quot;disenfranchised&quot; go straight to stage two. 

My personal defense is distance. I won&#039;t get within 20 miles of our city center on Tuesday. We&#039;re most likely going close early on Tuesday one office that is close to that city center. We&#039;ll go home and watch the news and see how it goes. 

I hope and pray I&#039;m wrong but where I live there are a lot of very intelligent people who share my thoughts on this. 

As always thanks Mass for getting solid information out.</description>

		<description>When Barack Obama arrived on the scene,he was championed as the ultimate peacemaker to help unite all races to live blissfull harmony for all time.Well,I don&#039;t see any evidence of that as of yet.In fact,I see the opposite happening,with Obama igniting a firestorm of racial divide &amp; more polariaztion &amp; racism than I&#039;ve seen since I don&#039;t know when.Simply having a President  of mixed racial heritage as Obama is doesn&#039;t magically transform him into some type of cultural &amp; racial healer.
    I live in a small town in Southern Illinois which to this day is largely &quot;segregated&quot;into a White Northside &amp; Black Southside.I remember as a kid in the 70&#039;s,it was conventional wisdom that it wasn&#039;t a good idea to drive in &quot;Southtown&quot;if you happen to be White &amp; vice versa.My Mother &amp; I along with a girlfriend of hers whose Husband worked with my Dad  &amp; her young Son found that out the hard way one night as we were going to take my Father &amp; this Womans Husband some dinner at their place of work. A group of young Black Males approached our car at a stop sign and started pelting our car with rocks &amp; bottles simply because of our race.One of the windows was down &amp; the young boy sitting beside me was struck in his eye with a rock and we had to rush him to the hospital.If memory serves correctly,he lost his sight in that eye.
       I&#039;m seeing that type of hatred building up again in both the White &amp; Black communities.One example of that happened the other night as I took my Family out to dinner followed by a drive around the Park when some African Americans males blocked our path &amp; yelled racial insults at us.Luckily there was a side road close enough that I was able to make a hasty exit.This especially concerns me now that I have a Family of my own with a small Child I&#039;m responsible to take care of &amp; keep safe.Along with the growing racial devide is the possibility of a President Obama that doesn&#039;t believe people have the right to protect themselves or their family. 
           As I stated before,it&#039;s not one sided.I&#039;ve heard some pretty harsh words coming from White members of the Community.The local Police Department Officers I&#039;ve spoken to say they are going to be on high alert come election night &amp; have already had to bump of patrols to deal with racial clashes &amp; violence.
       Mas,I hope your wrong on your analysis of this election rally &amp; the events that follow,but I sadly believe you are probably right.Prepare for the worst &amp; pray for the best.</description>
