Back to the 80's and the Reagan years. Remember that Debra Winger movie.
The one where she's an FBI agent who infiltrates a terrorist group of White Nationalists in the Midwest. A group that plans to "start a Race War" by driving around in cities shooting at cops and Black people. So that fighting breaks out in multiple cities and "Martial Law" has to be declared.
Remember that movie from the 80's?
Fun times, the 80's. Strange times, very violent. We seem to have collectively whitewashed out all that ugliness from our memories.
None of what's happening is new, we have been here before.
