There were warnings from some people who had a strong vision of what was coming to America, and tried to warn us.
A surprising number of them were musicians. Jello Biafra, the frontman for punk band the Dead Kennedys, was one of them. I have mentioned him here a number of times before, because he was the one who I heard this kind of thing from the most.
However, another one who saw what was coming, and also tried to warn us despite being mocked by some in his own time, was Frank Zappa.
Below are some video clips showing Zappa debating Christian fundamentalists during the eighties, and warning (despite the loud skepticism of those same Christians he was debating) about his warnings regarding the direction that the United States was then taking.
Take a look. We should have paid attention back then.
