I typed a whole statement,and decided to walk away from this.

I read it before you edited it

Jeezus -- What EVENT happened yesterday?

Not who won, not who lost, not who's in office now.

What event?

Got the answer?  Now...what did Guy Fawkes represent?

Think about those 2 things and how the dates occur one after the other.

IRONIC

/thread.

It's amazing how misunderstood the point was and the fact that it was meant to be lighthearted.

Guy Fawkes represented terrorism, and fighting for the right to have your own faith, against persecution

Really, it sounds like you're talking about an assassination attempt of a new successor.

I read it Vinnie, and I thought it was well said. 

It just so happens that I live in a prominently African American Neighborhood.  Its pretty sad when I have to go outside at 2Am, 3AM and then 3:45AM because some ignorant people are outside trying to cause Havoc in MY backyard.  Lighting off fireworks, ONE was trying to break into the bird, and (now I don't have proof, but I have theories) since I am one of the Few Caucasian people in the neighborhood, our cars WERE egged and I was threatened with bodily harm.  This happened to  other Caucasians in my area as well.  Now I know this is a bunch of stupid people, but when people are yelling "F" McCain and "Black Power", I feel that my statement is appropriate. 

And I do understand that these were ill educated people technically in the "Lower" class, and by no means representative on African Americans that I know and am friends with, but the more ignorant population seems to have reacted with a "we can do whatever the F we want" attitude starting with the election being called last night.

I think my statement is appropriate.

More the anti-government and terrorist theme I was going towards.

Sad part is it would have happened either way. If McCain would have won im sure areas that are the reverse of your neighborhood would have acted much like they did around you. Its sad that this was such an important election and so many people where uneducated on both sides.

close, but it wouldnt have been the opposit of his neighbor hood (i assume you mean prodominently white). there would have been riots in the "inner city".
