WRONG. The left NEEDS a race war in order to create the anarchy they need to have their leaders in government declare Martial Law to suspend the Constitution so they have the US military to help them bust heads and seize power.
The thing they are VERY aware of but most people seem able to ignore is that once the government declares a state of Martial Law exists and suspends the Bill of Rights "for the duration of the emergency",THEY are the ONLY ones with the authority to declare the emergency is over. What do YOU think the odds are of them voluntarily removing themselves from absolute dictatorial power?
I'm not so sure it is so much just the Left (although they are the conspicuous 'protesters' at the moment) as the cadre from both sides of the aisle, call them what you will: uniparty, 'establishment', 'Country Club', whatever (I prefer traitors).
There is a group in power who have been playing Kabuki Politics in DC for a long time, and now they have all the tools (and networking data) they need to round up the dissidents and take over without so much as the encumbrances of the Rule of Law once the rules are suspended and all the efficiency of modern technology. The tools are in currently place (Patriot Act) to take anything from anyone in a declared 'emergency', without compensation or redress, and to imprison without charge and deny Habeas Corpus--or even eliminate--those who resist. The precedent is almost 160 years old. The legislation is relatively new. Both parties put it there
http://educate-yourself.org/cn/patriotact20012006senatevote.shtml and the only question seems to be which one will be on top when it is implemented.
If your interpretation of "Left" is "totalitarian", they are there on both sides of the aisle. As ever there are those who will assert 'it's okay when
we do it. But "we" is a fickle thing, (recall Robespierre), so folks need to be careful what they wish for, it might not be as pretty as they think.
