Threats to Assassinate Romney Explode After Debate

Despite numerous media outlets attempting to downplay the issue, Twitter exploded last night following the debate with new threats from Obama supporters to assassinate Mitt Romney if he defeats Obama in the presidential race.
As we reported yesterday, in addition to threats by Obama supporters to riot if Romney wins, innumerable Twitter users are also making direct death threats against Romney.
The primary reason given for Obama supporters wanting to see Romney dead is the fear that he will take away food stamps.
If the tables were turned and conservatives were making death threats against Obama in these numbers, it would be a national news story. Indeed, the mere act of hanging empty chairs from trees as a reference to Clint Eastwood’s RNC speech was hyped by the media as a deadly sign that conservatives were out to lynch black people if Obama won.
However, the major networks have remained completely silent on the disturbing trend of Obama supporters threatening to resort to violence if their candidate fails to secure a second term.
Twitchy has compiled a laundry list of assassination threats by Obama supporters made during and after the debate, and more continued to flood in this morning, including the following;
The death threats are being made by both black and white people, emphasizing that merely drawing attention to the issue has nothing to do with “race-baiting,” as the Obama front group Think Progress claimed yesterday.
It is important to stress that these Twitter accounts are genuine, they are not fakes. Many of them have thousands of previous tweets.
The following Tweets are just some of the ones compiled by Twitchy during and after the debate;
- “If Romney win this election, he might as well wear a shirt that says “Assassinate Me Bitch”.
- “Yall ready to assasinate romney?”
- “Somebody needs to asassinate This mofo Romney.”
- “Romney make me wanna hop through the tv & just assasinate his ass.”
- “I aint gone lie… Food stamps the shit! I mite assasinate romney my damn self if he get elected!”
- “If romney get elected i hope a nigga assasinate his bitchass.
- “No birth control???? Lol rlly Romney the american population is going to overflow and then we’ll have to resort to murder and you’ll be #1.”
- “At this point in time I am completely prepared to MURDER ROMNEY MYSELF!”
- “If Romney win, IM GOING TO JAIL FOR MURDER cuz imma whack his bitch ass ASAP.”
- “If Mitt Romney wins, which I doubt, someone should assassinate him before he ruins the lives of our generation & our children.”
- “IF ROMNEY GETS ELECTED AND TAKES AWAY MY FOOD STAMPS IMA SEND SOMEONE TO MURDER HIS ASS.”
It is important to emphasize that these are just a selection of scores and scores of threats to assassinate Romney that have exploded on Twitter over the last 12 hours. We didn’t even have time to check Facebook or any other social networks.
As Infowars has stressed, we are non-partisan and have encouraged people to vote for neither candidate. However, the hypocrisy of leftists in trying to either downplay or deny this issue altogether is jaw-dropping given how they routinely try to portray conservatives as violent and extremist by pointing to angry comments made online.

I'm not sure, but I think at this point, threats to assassinate are not treason. However, if Romney is elected and these threats persist, it is a felony, and I'm sure the Secret Service will track and hunt down.
ReplyDeleteI'm SHOCKED I tells ya', shocked ... Da 'hood is amok with angst not just on their food stamps but the cell phone lifeline subsidy. How ya gonna make a drug deal without a phone?
ReplyDeleteCollective socialism breeds discontent and lays the fire. Class warfare provides oxygen to the embers. Propaganda fans the flames.
ReplyDeleteIt may look like spontaneous combustion but it is anything but.
We need a large bucket of cold water.
1773-2009 Ladies and gentlemen we sorely need to change direction in this country.

DeleteYou have just perfectly described the Tea Party. Say hello to the Koch's for us.
Ah, the Koch's.
DeleteCode word for I can't think for myself so I'll spew "The Koch's, Dick Cheney, Sarah Palin, Big Oil, Big Tobacco, yada, yada, yada."
Convenient but lame Maxie.
LOL, a spinmeister apologist calls bullshit on spin!
DeleteHey Angie, were those links on info wars regarding the 37 secret items you need to protect yourself from rioters? I was kinda surprised to not see an ad there for an full, author autographed set of the left behind novels.
ReplyDeleteIn a country as whacked as ours has become, I have no doubt there are freak shows out there who want to assassinate either/or/BOTH Romney and Obama. These quotes seem like the epitome of what white people THINK black people talk like. After doing a search, most of the stories talking about twitter threats to Romney are days if not weeks old. Info wars is non partisan? yeah, I buy that. I'm sure most non partisan web sites have an ad on the right side of the page asking you if you are ready to fight for food along with an ad asking if you are ready for radiation. Yeah, that's middle of the road alright.
Don't change the subject, the FACTS are they are tweeting theses ideas in great numbers and the main stream media is not reporting it. Those are the FACTS. If someone even makes a commit against BO the main stream media screams at the top of their printing press and cable shows....
Deleteand no, I am not middle of the road - I am conservative as I am informed...
Can you believe those idiots? Nearly every one of them are going to receive a knock on the door.
ReplyDeleteHey Max! You don't think blacks talk and text that way? There is a reason why Obama himself slips in to a different dialect when speaking to mostly blacks.
I LIVE in Atlanta. Atlanta is VERY integrated. That dialect DOES exist almost everywhere. I even here professional black men and women use it on the job, but even more so when they leave work. WHY? Because speaking English well means that you are trying to "be white". So when the ones that do use English appropriately at work, many switch back at "home" to avoid confrontation.
Of course this doesn't apply to all. Kudos to the ones that recognize the importance of speaking and writing well. But, there is a cultural aspect to this that can't be ignored. It's a rejection of "white" society.
The surprise (not) here is that you have a Marxist who used an anarchist (who advocated eliminating a minimum of 25% of the population) to write books about a communist family (father/mother/grandparents) and supported by a neocommunist unionist organization filled with society's dregs and self willingly unemployed malcontent, unwashed masses who expect their monthly government doles in addition to their parental allowance willing to riot with untold consequences against anyone who would otherwise change their lifestyle funded by one of the richest men in the world who toys with government currencies just for the hell of it.
ReplyDeleteThanks to Dr. Baller for the inspiration of complex sentence structure who asked the all important question, "Now WTF could possibly go wrong?"
Max, instead of just bad mouthing the tea party all the time. Tell me what they do that you think is bad for the country. That they organize public gatherings and express their first amendment rights?
ReplyDeleteAlright, I was initially impressed with some of the initial arguments they made. I was also impressed by their ability to organize and start gaining momentum. But, bit by by bit, I started to see a shift in what they are talking about and started to see stories about outside influences of money, hence, the Kochs. Then I started to see some of the candidates they put up. Sharron Angle? Really? And what about that combative shitbag from Illinois Joe Walsh who had to settle child support issues.
DeleteWhat's bad to me about them is that they are inflexible. They preach about a world that first of all never existed and second of all is soooooooooo far removed from where we are today it seems surreal to suggest we should go from here to there if four or five steps. We aren't now and never were a country that was ruled by pure capitalism. What happened to their message of undue influence in the legislative process? Where are their solutions to getting money out of government?
No party or politician is free of theatrics, but I find theirs particularly annoying. The don't tread on me stuff is childish. The tights, the commercials with sneering 1700's dressed people saying "Gather your armies" are also ridiculous. Whereas I thought they started as a group that was somewhat principled, I see them as becoming just an angry mob who worship the constitution like savages in a jungle worshiping a coke bottle that fell from the sky. Even Jefferson, as quoted on panel four in his memorial, said that laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. He ends that quote by saying that if we don't, we might as well require a man to wear the coat that fit him as a boy.
To me, this says you need to deal with the world as it is rather than as the mythical thing you would LIKE it to be. I see nothing in the demeanor of tea party types I talk to online that suggests there is an ounce of this attitude in them.
Max hates personal freedoms and our constitution - it is that simple. He wants government to take control because then morals go out the window and his master may be better served...

Delete"I never considered a difference of opinion in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend."

I am NOT Thomas Jefferson. I find your values repulsive and you are a product of those values and act on them. I do not feel repulsed by you as much as I pity you.
DeleteThe Tea Party believes in personal accountability and personal freedom. I would guess that many also believe in American exceptioinalism. They hold in high regard many of the ideals our forefathers had.
ReplyDeleteI saw a documentary last night about what German immigrants to the US went through to live here. The suffering and perseverence were amazing. Probably 50% died within 12 months of the start of their journey. This was a time when we had open lands and seemingly limitless resources.
Overall, today's immigrants can't hold a candle to the hardy breed that settled our country in large part because of their belief towards personal responsibility and freedom.
This doesn't say anything Live. The Republicans also claim they believe in accountability and personal freedom, yet, they don't deliver on it. Nation wide, Live, we talk incessantly about accountability and exceptionalism, but what that means for many people is that what they really want to do is hold others to a standard that they themselves don't want to live by. Millions of people you will never hear of get up every day and live American exceptionalism. I've never taken a dime of unemployment and I've never been unemployed. I failed out of high school but still found a way to get a GED, serve in the military, work my way up to being a broker, own a home, and then sell that home in order to put myself through college at age 38 to become a nurse.
DeleteI'm not looking for a pat on the back from you, but what they hell else do you want? What more do people have to do to be seen as worthy in your eyes when they don't agree with you politically? What more do they have to do to be seen as NOT part of the problem when they don't agree with you politically? What, in my life, is such a fucking contrast to the ideals of the forefathers? If subservience to a political party is all you can come up with as being the thing that makes one worthy, then enjoy the complete lack of exceptionalism that is to follow, because it will follow.
As for today's immigrant's, that's a bit of an odd statement. So the Mexican's coming here today are just sucking up free benefits yet are somehow also taking jobs? That's a bit incongruous.
"If subservience to a political party is all you can come up with as being the thing that makes one worthy, then enjoy the complete lack of exceptionalism that is to follow, because it will follow."
DeleteOne last time Maxie, the Tea Party is not a political party. Glad to see you quoting Jefferson though.
"In April 2009, President Barack Obama said, "I believe in American exceptionalism, just as I suspect that the Brits believe in British exceptionalism and the Greeks believe in Greek exceptionalism."
This reflects a basic misunderstanding of what American exceptionalism means. It doesn’t mean that Americans are exceptional people (although in many respects we are). It means that the values our Founding Fathers expressed in our founding documents are exceptional!
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Our founders established American exceptionalism when they established our truly unique form of government—one in which they accomplished what no country had done before or since. First, our founders put the people in control rather than themselves or royalty, a rare feat in itself. But they also grounded the rights of the people in God while still guaranteeing religious freedom and avoiding religious persecution. That was and remains truly exceptional."

Again William, you cut and paste the words of others. The tea party isn't a political party? That's interesting. As for the rest of your post, meh. What to say. The constitution is words, without the perseverance of those who came before us and who continue to defend it here and abroad today, it remains a piece of paper with words on it.
DeleteYou love to draw these distinctions that essentially make the constitution an event that trumps the birth of Christ. IE, there was the world of savagery before our constitution, a brief period of perfection while the founding fathers lived, and a steady march to tyranny ever since. Surprisingly, I don't wake up every day and think, "Wow, I could be doing X and living in splendor if not for the tyranny of the government." But, apparently, you do. Somehow, none of us can understand exceptionalism or live it unless we are spouting the constitution.
