Political Dissent under attack in the United States.

"The destruction of democratic rights is the political response of the corporate and financial aristocracy to the growth of working class discontent bound up with record levels of social inequality. It is intimately linked to preparations for a major escalation of imperialist violence around the world. The greatest concern of the ruling elite is the emergence of an independent movement of the working class, and the state is taking actions to prevent it."

The desperate act of an empire that's declining - turn its might against its own citizens. It reminds me of the old saying from John F. Kennedy (http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/?pid=9100) -


 Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.
