- BohicaTwentyTwo, on 09/02/2008, -1/+20FTA:"If McCain wins, look for a full-fledged race and class war, fueled by a deflated and depressed country, soaring crime, homelessness - and hopelessness!"
Is that a threat?- ssn697, on 09/02/2008, -2/+13That sounds like a direct quote from one of Ron Paul's newsletters.
- BillE3, on 09/02/2008, -1/+11If that is the case, then we should be in the middle of a race war right now. This nothing more than race baiting.
- 4wheel, on 09/02/2008, -1/+9Brought to you by Fatimah Ali.
- ObamaIsCarter2, on 09/11/2008, -0/+0Yes BTT...IT IS A THREAT!! Fatimah Ali is a radical Muslim with widespread readership in Philly...she will have nobody to blame but herself if and when she and her radical Muslim cohorts are shipped off and locked up in detention centers!!
- InRussetShadows, on 09/02/2008, -1/+21Race-baiting articles suck. This columnist should be fired.
- Poovey, on 09/08/2008, -0/+5It's the Philly Dailey News. She will probably be promoted.
- ramiro, on 09/02/2008, -3/+13We can expect that the big media will advertise more veiled threats such as this very soon when it becomes evident that McCain will win this election. The media will blare out articles/speeches intended with the same effects of a threat.
They will not use the words "do not vote and do not dare to elect McCain or else riots will be started" but they will try to create a "background noise", a "climate", and forge a consensus to that effect.
If anyone comes to you with that kind of manipulation, gently remind them of the 2nd amendment and of how great harm lead dispensers can do. - DuggDowner, on 09/02/2008, -11/+2It wouldn't surprise me in the least if McCain's followers carried out atrocities on minority communities should they win.
- Poovey, on 09/08/2008, -0/+4Back under the bridge, troll!
- Pitofdoom, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1Unbelievable, please put down the crack pipe,
you've had more then enough !
- bernk1, on 09/02/2008, -1/+9Does anyone other than a racist really believe that black Americans are going to start a race war because Barak Obama loses an election? Or is his wishful thinking; revolution is the opiate of the armchair revolutionary.
- Tenney20, on 09/02/2008, -2/+10Wasn't Obama supposed to be post racial?
- Rich711, on 09/02/2008, -1/+5What does that say about this woman's opinion of Black America? Or is she just a racist who wishes for black people to start killing white people? I bet she's a big fan of Rev. Wright and Obama's church's philosophy of "white privilege".
- Rich711, on 09/03/2008, -0/+3I love how she closes it with "I expect Obama to keep his word" you'd have to since you have no proof of his character or accomplishments. How stupid is the left that they have a candidate that all they have as proof that he is capable is his word?
There will be a race war when there is no Monday Night football and all the Playstations in the world have stopped working. Until then all the Che' t-shirt wearing armchair generals like Ms Ali can just go blow smoke up their own asses. - DrJen, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1By her analysis, if McCain-Palin loses we should be expect rioting women in our streets. That is nonsense. Numerically, women have experienced and continue to live with far more discrimination world-wide.
Furthermore, most people have better things to do* than perpetrate violence the day after an election. This woman is engaged in fear-mongering.
* Going to or looking for work, taking care of their children or elderly relatives, cleaning their house, helping a friend, taking down election signs, etc. - neale1951, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1
This somewhat relates to this post if you note the name of the author of the article.
ST. LOUIS, Mo. - Sen. Barack Obama's foes seized Sunday upon a brief slip of the
tongue, when the Democratic presidential nominee was outlining his Christianity
but accidentally said, "my Muslim faith."

It is obvious from writings from the north east part of the country that people up there are much more racial trigger happy than down in Texas where I live. Believe it or not we live in harmony. My tiny town is approximately 1/3 white, 1/3 black, 1/3 Mexican. We do not have racial problems in the schools, all races serve on both the school board and the city council, we have too much pride to ever use that old racial excuse. I am white and Mexicans live across one street from me, and blacks across the other street - and we are all content. And, I don't see poverty in our country which is one of the poorest in the state. Everyone drives decent vehicles, almost every human has a cell phone, and the restaurants are crowded. I truly believe what conservative economists are saying: we are not in a recession. I've had it with these garbage handlers who hate anything conservative and will say anything they can think of to stir up real trouble. It's time we quit paying any attention whatsoever to them - treat them like non-people.
- Pitofdoom, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1You can count on radical community disorginizers round about !!!
- rhayat1, on 09/09/2008, -0/+1There will be riots for sure as blacks will riot at the drop of a hat when concentrated in large numbers as in large cities. As for jobs, Obama is in favor of systematic discrimination against whites when it comes to education and jobs. So, if this "Mr. Smith" is white, he's probably as likely to be denied a job because of his skin color as because of outsourcing.
- ObamaIsCarter2, on 09/11/2008, -0/+0The scariest part of this is that this inflammatory piece of garbage was written by a "MAINSTREAM, 'MODERATE' MUSLIM" who actually has widespread readership in Philadelphia!! Therefore, it's not surprising that Philly is where that psychotic hammer-wielding madman attacked a young guy on the city subway and beat him with a hammer while shouting praise to "ALLAH"!!
If there is a war on the streets of America, it is more likely to be MUSLIM AGAINST "INFIDEL", so this Muslim skank will have nobody but herself to blame when she and her fellow radical Muslims are shipped off to detention camps!!
