The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

The U.S. government has become a neofascist regime run by a sociopath.
Keeping it funded now is to participate in the most atrocious abuse of power in U.S. history.
So I for one have decided that the best route is to shut the whole thing down.
