How many cities will the sore losers burn/loot/riot?

Will it be confined to the inner cities, or are the suburbs at risk this time?

I say it's a 7. We will see some major violence and it will be worse than the Floyd riots. But it will be confined to the inner cities.
We'll see as much as we allow.

Am I supposed to take this post seriously? It's "their" not "there", by the way.

Oh, I'm not worried at all about it. Trump is the Law and Order president. He'll come down hard on American citizens. Funny how he didn't come down hard on the KKK rioters in Charlottesville though. Those were good people.

Only if he cheats. Then all hell is going to break loose in the streets and The People will overthrow the government. Remember he lost the popular vote by MILLIONS! Russia wins.

If he wins a fair one, however, just more of the same. Little riots here and there.

Oh please! We heard that back in 2008, and nothing happened.

Same as now.

We know what we are getting with Trump, and 4 more years means just that: 4 more years of the same.

Are the boogaloo boys even trump supporters? I have always heard that they are anti government in general. I’m more concerned about the far left radicals, given that the far right are more reactionary atm to the social unrest created by the far left. I only have the footage to go off of. Proud boys are still a threat, but not as much of a threat as antifa.

Since I see the far right as mostly reactionary, I condemn the far left that are pushing that reaction. My family and I would most likely be targeted by any far right reaction. I think moderates need to call out the BS on both sides and treat both of them as a threat. Both of them are a threat, but which side has caused more social unrest and is gaining more traction. Think about it.

If Trump wins by cheating, which he has demonstrated a willingness to do, then yes, there will be protests.

Trump is setting this scenario up, that's why he is using DeJoy to sabotage the post office.

If Biden wins, watch out. Homeland Security and the FBI have already issued warnings that right wing extremists may engage in violent activities.
As opposed to the racist BLM terrorists? How many billions in damage have the alleged right wing extremists done? I do believe that the Racist BLM terror Org has surpassed 100 billion.

How do you even post such nonsense while you have a history of defending BLM racists?
