Go corner a wild animal and see what happens.

For those that have only lived comfortable and safe lives, the line where they bite back is far away, and for others that know pain or oppression, the line is a lot closer. But the line always exists, and with the way everything is going right now, we are all diving face-first over that line sooner or later.

There will come a breaking point though. I hope to never see it, but there is a line that can be crossed that will move people to action. I'll admit, it might be further than it should be, but it's there. Americans may be complacent, but people are people
