U.S. Senator Chris Murphy has lost so much faith in the political and judicial process he now believes only a mass uprising will force change. I can link the NBC article below. The question is, how many Representatives and Senators echoing that message will be enough for people to take action, and will there still be enough time left?

What's the likelihood that he wouldn't declare martial law immediately and a significant number of protesters wouldn't make it home? I have a lot of concerns about next weekend's protests and whether it's going to turn very bad, very quickly.

Right now, the military and police that would be ordered to shoot protesters may not obey.

In 2 years, they will.

Take your pick.
