No it wasn't sarcasm, but I am serious. Any uprising, confrontation or even simple violent demonstrations will be met with such force that people will be in shock. This is not something that we really want or need right now, we need a soft revolution - times have changed so much since 9/11.
There is a lot more to what I am saying, I am not going to say much more but think Sturmabteilung.
What I am getting concerned about is the police and the militarization of them. I am not thinking conspiracy theory cr*p but looking at some contingency plans and how the DHS wants to integrate more communications systems into one system that is encrypted, it is just bothering me more and more.
