Yeah? If anything were to happen to Obama, those same people would be out in the streets rioting as the stuff will hit the fan. Although I would never vote for a socialist like Obama, I pray nothing does happen to him for the above reason.
That reminds me, I need to go and buy more ammo! Nothing like being prepared for a disaster.
