> One thing I've noticed. If the current election fiasco had occurred in some other country besides the US, there would likely be people marching on the capital building, riots in the streets, overturned and burning cars, bullets, tear gas, explosions etc. But we are one of only a few countries that knows how to settle election disagreements without violence. I guess I'm looking for something to feel good about so I won't want to wring somebody's neck.
