Police departments across the U.S. are preparing for civil unrest and riots after the election. (Police Officer: You got an African-American and a woman running. Whoever wins it, it will be a national event. We will have more officers on the street in anticipation that things may go south.) If Palin loses, cops say, angry women will riot, go on wild shopping sprees and attack men. (Man: The chicks bumrushed our frat house. They reupholstered everything with floral prints!) (Man 2: One forced marriage upon me!) Women enjoy a 50.7 to 49.3% demographic advantage over men, so things could turn ugly fast. The economy is ruined, we're losing two wars. If there's a femriot for Palin, America is finished! (Barack Obama: Argh! They've got doilies! Give them everything they want!)

If I’m not mistaken, a good deal of women and feminists don’t support the McCain/Palin ticket.

Wow, kellykid’s remark is either staggeringly ignorant or astonishingly racist. So the fear and smear machine got to you, eh?

It’s already historic that a black guy runs so even if he looses, it will still be historic. Will white people riot? No. Why would black people? The Rodney King riots were 16 years ago.

A good deal of them are french-canadian…read about the Maurice Richard riots of 1955. All that for a hockey player, but it unleashed all the frustrations the french-canadian majority (back then called canadiens, like the team) had against the WASP establishment.
Plus, there were small riots last august in a predominently haitian neighborhood of Montreal. They revolted against racial profiling made by the cops.
Of course, last summer was nothing compared to the Rodney King riots. For anything that comes close to that, you have to get to Montreal when the Habs wi the Stanley Cup! (check 1993)
