Nearly a third of Americans – 30% – say people may have to resort to violence in order to get the country back on track, according to the latest PBS News/NPR/Marist poll.

It’s a sharp rise from 18 months ago, when 19% of Americans said the same.

Violence fails 50% of the time, if not more. Every fight has a losing side.

Read up on your history.

The US dropped something like five Hiroshimas a day on North Viet-Nam for years.

Germany killed many more enemy soldiers than Russia did.
