[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 4834266, member: 24302"] Once heard a history teacher point out that American history is full of the latest thing that grabs headlines and outrages people. And then they tire of it and move on to the next latest thing. He said this in 1983. Probably the big difference is we now have social media that splits us into tribes plus the 24 hr news cycle. My biggest concern is we have not only an electorate that is determined to silence all dissent but that a leader will arise that with their approval cracks down on any views but the accepted government view. We seem to be on our way there. [/QUOTE]
