But I do sense that we are on a track to violence that will not contain itself to movie screens and other countries, the way we like our violence.

This, at a time when our National Guard are worn thin and, in some cases, not immediately available. California borrowed someone else's for our fires...thank you, to whichever states' taxpayers those were. Were you recompensed?

There are riots when football championships are won. With the numbers of very young (many unemployed) people that support Obama it would be a suprise if there was not a riot. Mature people that have jobs do not riot. I totally agree with you. Never be intimidated into voting for or against anything you feel is right.

I remember when I was in Camp Pendleton years ago many marines had to help with the out of control California fires. Is the National Guard usually the ones that fight these fires? Do you think the Obama supporters would try to take advantage of what they think is a stretched National Guard force?
