This is the way most "revolutions" take place. It's seen over and over, throughout history. And many of the bloodiest have been done by leftists, the same gang that makes up the "occupiers." Only this time, they've got the POTUS sympathetic to their cause, if not outright supportive.
Think "Reichstag Fire" and the "Polish attack on the German radio station" in the 1930s...

As a root cause, I blame "progressive" "educators".
They have led our children astray from God and Country and we have let them do it.
I see a civil war in our future, one which we will most likely lose. The best we can hope for is to control a portion of our country and reorganize ourselves into a society where citizens practice individual responsibility.
