“Whenever the vicious portion of (our) population shall be permitted to gather in bands of hundreds and thousands, and burn churches … throw printing-presses into rivers, shoot editors, and hang and burn obnoxious persons at pleasure and with impunity …this gov’t cannot last.”

Abraham Lincoln's Lyceum Address was delivered to the Young Men's Lyceum of Springfield, Illinois on January 27, 1838, titled "The Perpetuation of Our Political Institutions".

Lincoln warned that mobs or people who disrespected U.S. laws and courts could destroy the United States.

6. Lincoln predicted National Hate Radio a century and a half before there was National Hate Radio

He predicted Steve Bannon, Tucker Carlson and Sean's Insanity. A very prescient man.
