    Nothing will happen because america has become to complacent. They beleive what they see on the news which is owned by giant companies that run the US. Also we are run by a two party system which is constantly going at it and most people agree with either one, rather there should be many parties or none at all. The only way it would happen if ever would be something small, like someone organizes a anti tax rally or some type of peaceful protest and is accidentlly or not, killed by a government official(ie a police officer or military personal) Boston Massacre.Then if it is spread in time via social network or the like by an independent news sorce. This would be before the government was able to control the footage or story on the internet, or TV which would probably be some grainy film by a cell phone or something that most wouldn't take as true. I mean look at the brutality in NY for the occupation protest. Non of that was shown on national TV news. Again owened by conglomerets that work with the government to line their own pockets or by people that own the banks that print our money and has a TV station as a small income. So if you could get that perfect storm of some innocent american being disposed of on film and out to millions of americans before the government shut it...

So if you could get that perfect storm of some innocent american being disposed of on film and out to millions of americans before the government shut it down, it still would not work because the people would not be organized and what do you get with angry unorganized groups of discontent americans out for themselves even when trying to call it a noble cause. Well just look back to the early 90's for that. LA riots. That was the last time the people got so fed up with the government oppresion they did something about it.
    Just look at that and you have your last american revolution. 3 days of unorganized revolution by the poor. Not to mention the minorities. They were promised a better life that never came and did something about it. Promised happiness and never received it. We can not revolt because there is no organization, no leader, and no true militia. 20 years ago we had a chance but our predudice toward our fellow americans stopped it. When the riots happened and america sat by ideally and watched and laughed saying " oh look at all those mexicans and blacks just running around stealing and looting they are rediculas." If you would of got off your fat Mcdonald bloated asses and someone would of went out there and led those people, well then we might not be having this conversation. So no there will not be another american revolution because we had our chance and blew it but if we hadn't back then well we wouldn't be bitching now would we.

    I put it at twenty years at the outside. Americans are WAY too Balkanized, philosophically.

    One thing's for damned sure. This won't be your garden variety romanticist's revolution. If it kicks off in earnest we're talking about a bloodbath which will make the Civil War look like a picnic by comparison. I doubt anyone here can possibly imagine how ugly it would be.

    I'm hoping it will come in the form of a slow movement, a cultural movement, that will impact every sector and facet of American life, including our education system.

    Retarded fight club comments aside, it will happen. The Department of Homeland Security didn't buy 400 million rounds of hollow point for nothing. I suggest you buy your own ammunition. The government is going down.

    Would be nice the new wars could take most of Leaders, like Presidents to war, like used to be in Medieval when Kings went too. This way we should send Obama to the front give orders and make him smile or laugh that his he like the most. He is a good actor to make a movies like used to be Regan.

    It's a "revolution", not an overseas war. And it's coming. Like the 60's. We have world wide unrest in the desparity issue of the "rich robbing the poor" and it will stop. It's time for us. The rich have always robbed the poor. It's a continuing battle for "property". Eat the rich. $100K a year doesn't buy a lot of beer. We need more. From the inside. Were finally on our own.

    WTF do you mean by 'fight club style'? That doesn't make any sense.

    I'd never heard of it either. so I looked it up.
    'The Fight Club' was a movie. it's in Wikipedia, jfwiw.

    dunno for sure, but I think j zano may have been making a joke?

    I've seen the movie. The movie has nothing to do with revolution.

    It kinda does actually. At the end Tyler Durden's group blows up some government buildings or something like that, if I remember correctly.

    Well, yeah, there was fight club, where the members met and duked it out. But, then there was the Edward Norton/Brad Pitt character, Tyler Durden, that blew up the building.

    that movie was hawt and if it happened correctly alot of things would change but most people don't even understand the depth of that movie! it's not about fighting each other in a bloody basement.

    Remember "Revolution" is what the bloody take over of Cuba headed by the Castro brothers and Che Guevara was called.More people were executed in the first 5 years of the communists rule than Hitler killed in his.Is that really what we want to see in America?

    Afterwards we pick up the pieces and hope we don't stroll down the same road. The system needs to be destroyed. I don't have all the answers and neither do theses governments that we supposedly vote for. The current way the world is run will lead to destruction. That is what I do know for sure.

    sad part is people really believe that all of the people in the gov is there to serve you... they are not! and no one man or group has the answer to the problems.
