It's a time of fear mongering and flashbacks to europe in the late 30s/early 40s, need to change the administration to begin to switch this tide and even then it'll be generations before we can expect anything near the level of respect this country used to garner. Too many in this country pay too little attention to what's going on or understand the implications of the actions and events currently underway.
Along the same lines as above:

While 1939's talk is back in fashion with people inside the beltway, the "knock on the door" does happen even today. FBI and Secret Service knocking on doors investigating kids' role-playing game scenarios or hot-air-only words of anger has happened before -- even before 9/11. It's not unique to the US either.
