While the attack on the Capital is abhorrent, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Politics has been getting ugly for decades, but took a turn for the worse when Harry Reid forced through the ACA on a party-line vote, using raw, ugly political power, and against the wishes of half the country. Then he changed the rules for approving federal judges, opening up the door for Mitch McConnel to do the same for SCOTUS. The right-wing has been mostly peaceful over the years, while the left-wing has become more and more violent. Compare the Occupy Wall Street to the TEA Party. Compare ANTIFA and BLM "peaceful" protests to anything. Now having endured almost a year of violence in our largest cities, that the Democrats have yet to condemn, it was only a matter of time that the right-wing exploded.

The extreme right-wing is pretty much disavowed by rank and file Republicans, but the extreme left-wing is the rank and file Democrats. This will not end until the Democrat leadership puts an end to their own radical movement and violence, and the Republican leadership sits down with the Democrats and comes up with a way to diffuse the powder keg that violence created.

In the meantime, our Republic is on shaky grounds, more dangerous than anything since the Civil War. The nation will not make it to 300 years if something doesn't give. I'm just glad I'll be dead when the nation implodes in a violence that is unimaginable.
