Best days are to come for everyone outside of the US, the US will look like a cross between Afghanistan and Russia in 2 decades.

I find it very hard to believe that the majority is optimistic about the future of our country, but it's very easy to believe that people are beginning to acknowledge the necessity of violence in creating lasting change in the US.

All of the peaceful protesting over the last generation hasn't done much to slow down the march into fascism.

Sure, but would those people agree with each other on what those best things to come are?
