Will Americans Ever Riot?

Very interesting blog here on why the riots are taking place in England.  I wonder what will be the breaking point in the U.S.  I'm sure riots are on the way, and it's a matter of when they will take place and not if.  Between a government that largely serves corporate interests and leaves large swaths of the population to fend for themselves to a supreme court that has all but given it's full stamp of approval, it's just a matter of time before Americans will say enough is enough and demand drastic change.  Of course, being a semi-police state that the U.S. has become any riots or uprising will be doomed to failure and violently squashed faster than you can say, "unlimited campaign contributions by corporations."  Thank you Justice Scalia and you other right wing Supreme Court ideologues!  I hope someday the people recognize you for what you are and catch up to you.  Changing "Justice" Scalia to "prisoner" Scalia would be a welcome and righteous outcome to it all!
