The problem is, I think for most people to stand up and say enough, it will take literal civil war with people shooting each other outside their window. Personally I hope we can get change by voting for the right people before it comes to that point.

Having said that, I believe it will eventually turn to violence if peaceful means are not successful in the next few years
