Do you really think that this is the first time folks have talked about the danger of a police state in America? If you're young, this may seem new to you. If you're a bit older, you'll have seen all this before and you'll understand that the police state won't be a reality for you much longer. ;-)
We'll get through it all, even if we have to change some laws here and there.
I am 58 and I have seen and paid attention to everything political. When I was a kid, I was watching William F. Buckley skewer the likes of gore vidal on Firing Line.. I have been around the world and have been in some not so very nice places. I have seen things that remind me of what I see in America today. We may get through this but we will not be the same and we quite possibly will never be the same. The people behind the destruction of America are more serious than most Americans that would defend our Republic. I hope enough on our side get their minds right because none of this will be solved easily. I pray for a peaceful resolution but I also prepare for the worst.
