Yep...starting in blue states. They're already at the point of violence spilling over for any reason. For that matter, all that's really required is for a legislature to attempt to balance a state's budget and de-fang the union thuggery and violence results!

Too many people feel cheated. Too many people feel disenfranchised. Too many people think that they deserve something because they struggled through four to 12 years of college and now have massive loans to repay in the face of a contracting national economy. Too many people are looking to blame somebody...ANYBODY because they can't find a job. Too many people are simply on edge.

SP told me that hospitalizations are up over 400% from three years ago for stress and substance abuse related problems. The word in those circles is that this is a national problem. At least that's what they've been briefed. They've even gone through some special training to be a little better able to handle this category of patients.

Everybody, and everything is on edge right now. Everybody perceives that something big and bad is going to happen, but nobody can quite put words to it. :-) NOTHING would surprise me and nothing does anymore. At best, I manage to shake my head in mild shock before moving on. But I'm not surprised by anything anymore.

If I had the national podium for just a few minutes, I'd tell them all to stay peaceful at all cost. I "think" you and I and others like us comprise approximately 3% of the population. While we love peace, and we go way out of our way to avoid trouble, we're capable of killing the remaining 97% three times over. The three components required to seriously consider any potential lethal force threat are ability, desire, and capability and the only one we're lacking at this very moment is desire, and that could quickly CHANGE.

The left and the offended should be very careful in the months to come.
