I think if it ever came to that it would look more like Iraq or Afghanistan were you have sporadic insurgency type attacks. And bombings and political assassinations becoming daily occurrences. Eventually entire regions of the country will become defacto independent when the populace and law enforcement simply ignore laws they don't like from the central government and the central government is afraid to send in the troops to try to force the issue. You are starting to see the beginnings of such revolts in the left wing cities refusing to enforce immigration laws and the red state Sheriffs saying they won't enforce gun laws.
Civil War will happen if the communists Democrats take control of America.
It will more or less resemble Yugoslavia.
It is very easy to say “Civil War”. What does that mean? It probably won’t mean that you stop going to work and letting the state and federal government take its cut.
It oughtn’t mean just secretly breaking things or killing “bad guys” randomly.
There have to be tactics with a strategic objective. Even the libertarian “Free State Project” was a failure, in part because they picked New Hampshire, and not Wyoming or Alaska.
The government doesn’t have to go door to door for guns as things are. It just has to dissolve the mortar, and eventually the big wall of bricks falls.
There is no way that the American people will vote to defeat President Trump.
Think beyond Trump.
We’ve already had a literal coup attempt.
A huge Resistance movement would come about.
Not going to read the article but that is the stupidest headline I’ve seen in a long while.
I think dysfunction bordering on anarchy is the more likely scenario, no matter who wins next year’s election. But not civil war.
Hobson’s choice. Peace in our time, or Democrat President?
Which is really no choice at all.
I agree. After Trump wins in 2020, the Left and their Useful Idiots are going to be a huge menace. They’ll go more berserk than ever. Civil disobedience will be the norm.
Makes me think Eric's never been in a shooting war.
Preferable or not, CW-II WILL happen if we get a Democrat president - at least the *sshat clowns that are currently front runners.
Some of us have been saying this for several years now. The gap between the left and right is too far to ever bridge. Best to come to an amicable split than let the situation devolve further.
Found the guy willing to give up his guns for peace.
Sanctuary cities
That is a stupid thing to say.
Right now we’re living in a golden age.
We flush our toilets with potable water.
Real hunger is rare to non-existent.
“Poor” people have problems with obesity.
Almost everyone, regardless of income has access to cell phones.
A civil war ends this.
Half the country would be in ruin by now if Hillary had won.
