Increased police shooting are the symptoms of a return to 1919?

Know your history America.  via Wikipedia...

In late April 1919, at least 36 booby trap dynamite-filled bombs were mailed to a cross-section of prominent politicians and appointees, including theAttorney General of the United States, as well as justice officials, newspaper editors and businessmen, including John D. Rockefeller.[1] Among all the bombs addressed to high-level officials, one bomb was addressed to the home of a Department of Justice Bureau of Investigation (BOI) field agent once tasked with investigating the Galleanists, Rayme Weston Finch, who in 1918 had arrested two prominent Galleanists while leading a police raid on the offices of their publication Cronaca Sovversiva.[1]

And then this...

Fueled by labor unrest and the anarchist bombings, and then spurred on by Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer's attempt to suppress radical and non-radical labor organizations, it was characterized by exaggerated rhetoric, illegal search and seizures, unwarranted arrests and detentions, and the deportation of several hundred suspected radicals and anarchists. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, twice targeted by anarchist bombs, organized the nationwide series of police actions, known as the Palmer raids, in November 1919 and January 1920. Under suspicion of violating the Espionage Act, the Sedition Act, and/or the Immigration Act of 1918,[11] approximately 10,000 people were arrested, of which 3,500 were held in detention.[12] Of those held in detention, 556 resident aliens were eventually deported.[11]

All of the above is from the 1919 Anarchist Bombing (Wiki entry is here). Consider this an online response to my debating partner, American Mercenary.  He did a post here that should be read to put this whole thing in context. 

My point?

The incident at the Bundy Ranch could have sparked something dark and deeply American if the government had chose to.  There have been numerous times throughout our history when the government has forcefully put down dissent.

The situation today is familiar to any student of history.  You're looking at (generally) both coasts against fly over country.  Liberal versus conservative generally established by where you live (with pockets of each viewpoint found in each area).  And there lies the danger.  You have a federal government that is Northeast corridor biased attempting to push its "beliefs" onto parts of the country that do not feel the same (the South and Midwest).

The only thing missing is a defining issue and we're looking at a semi-repeat of history.  Now do you get the force of connection?
