Nearly a third of Americans – 30% – say people may have to resort to violence in order to get the country back on track, according to the latest PBS News/NPR/Marist poll.

It’s a sharp rise from 18 months ago, when 19% of Americans said the same.

    If you feel name calling is a viable tactic, I guess I’ll have to cede to your vast intelligence and withdraw. I may be deluded but I know when a conversation is a waste of time.

      Name calling would be something like “you’re an idiot”. Saying you’re delusional for minimizing arguably the worst war in human history as a cherry picked fact is descriptive. But yes, this is a waste of time.

      Idealists thinking that humans, notoriously violent mind you, have somehow evolved beyond violence WHILE VIOLENCE IS OCCURRING is absolutely insane!

        It’s a waste of time, but you’ll keep it going. When I say I laughed out loud at your comment, it’s no delusion.
