Well, I'm frankly not surprised. The forces of revolution have been
mounting for years on both sides. Constitutionalists on the right and
socialists on the left have been mobilizing and using their hooks in
congress and state governments to instigate the repression/reaction
vicious cycle that Marxist revolutionary theory prescribes. Global
socialism wants revolution here in the US. If they can succeed here,
then global socialist government will fall into place very easily.
