Riots in the streets are nothing new here. They have been, and will be, by anarchists and leftists.
You're probably right and that's what the big-government political elites are counting on. They know that conservatives are too mild-mannered to respond forcefully to their expropriation. They may drive a Tea Party Express bus around and muster a few thousand peaceful protesters, but they can safely be ignored as the Feds usurp core individual liberties, nationalize the "commanding heights" of industry and commerce, confiscate 401(k) and retirement accounts, introduce a VAT, increase income taxes, and abrogate middle-class welfare programs like Social Security and Medicare. They know we'll still go to work tomorrow and pay our taxes.
There’s a difference between “I’m bored, let’s riot” vs. “nine meals from anarchy” riots.
Actually - if you have a few minutes go on youtube and look at the 1992 L.A. riots
I believe we are facing that.
