Do you internet commandos know what kind of hatreds and passions would aroused in a civil war? Do you even care? Which side will I have to protect my family against?

Yes, most people on this site are quite aware of what Civil War will entail, and many freepers are prepared. It's not going to be pretty in any way, but it will be necessary to restore this country to a path that is viable for long term existence.

Many here won't be ready for the unbelievable brutality involved, nor will most acknowledge to themselves just exactly how vicious we will have to be to win against the enemy forces that will be opposing us, but most will fight instead of capitulating as the alternative is unbearable.

Thanks popdonnelly for a note of sanity. There has been an uptick in these "cut~n~run" threads lately and sometimes I feel like I'm trying to swim upstream.

Which side will I have to protect my family against?

The answer is that in the chaos of civil war you will most likely have to watch your back, your front, and both sides. Unlike the WBTS an ideological civil war won't have ant front lines. There is every possibility that it would be neighbor fighting neighbor with no one the winner. I understand people being pissed off about our current condition but blowing everything up isn't the solution.

You may be missing something. The question isn't whether the second civil war will be terrible if it comes (it will!). The question is whether the alternative would be even worse (I'm starting to think it would).
