What they are really saying in this passage is that the country is one supreme court justice away from civil war.

I think a "Constitutional Crisis" is more likely than "Civil War".

Look at Baltimore, Chicago, NY and other big US cities this past Summer, showing how cops react when people armed with phone cameras threaten their livelihoods and pensions.

The US is a nation of (top end of the estimates) nearly 400 million guns in the hands of over 100 million gun owners. How are they going to react to the knowledge of what will threaten their lives if they try to enforce some sort of gun ban?

This article lays it out pretty clearly. Pay attention to Step #5.

Wouldn’t it be simpler for the feds to withhold funding from states/cties/organizations/people that refuse to comply with some kind of new “common sense” gun safety laws???

Seems to me that would just spur the States to stop sending taxpayers’ money to the feds. Who would blink first?

Step #5 is clearly civil war. There are millions of America-loving citizens who “will not go gently into that good night.” They will fight.
