At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected?
I answer,
if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from
abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and
finisher.
As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die
by suicide.
~ Abraham Lincoln
Love him or hate him, Lincoln was right on the money with this one.

OH so damn true! Sigh!
Agreed, sir - and it's difficult to pretend we're not committing slow-motion suicide, these days.
