There are many ways this could play out, but as SHTFPlan.com's Mac Slavo notes, few could deny that any number of critical factors are coming to a head right here at home.

If economic collapse is particularly harsh, things could easily spiral out of control. Civil unrest could become the norm, and things could reach a very desperate point.

But depending upon what specific events take place, the police and military may not remain on the side of the federal government, but may support and defend the American people, and what could be a violence, bloody and drawn out struggle to rebuild what once was. What do you think will happen?

5 Factors That Could Transform Civil Unrest Into a Full-Blown Revolution

Authored by former Jeremiah Johnson via ReadyNutrition.com,

As mentioned in Part I of this series, the U.S. is (even after the election) on the cusp of a revolution. The potential for revolution exists in all countries at any given time. We will first list some of the factors that cause an uprising to transform into an all-encompassing revolution.

1.Economic Factors: This could take the form of an economic collapse and/or runaway inflation/devaluation of a nation’s currency, as well as chronic or acute unemployment, lowered manufacturing base accompanied by firings or closure of positions or plants.
2.Warfare: can lead to a country’s dissolution either by insurgency or occupation, followed by an attempt to resist (revolt) either against a foreign oppressor or a country that has (in the manner of the Hessians in the Revolutionary war) “invited in” an occupying army.
3.Religious/Theological: in the form either of persecution of a culture’s predominant religion or factions/schisms leading to confrontation of conflict between two different religious groups.
4.Government Oppression: in the

Amusing, yet not invalid, point.

But don't underestimate the fervor of certain ethnic/racial groups deprived of food stamps.

Is it just me or do I detect that nearly all this CWII crap is being peddled on sites selling gold or dehydrated food?

Quite. Like the name of frequent Zero Hedge contributor “Tyler Durden”, “Jeremiah Johnson” is a movie character.

Trump is saving jobs. The market is doing better since his election. Our nation will become more secure. The only danger we face is the aftermath of the Obama Socialist Coup. His minions are fired up over the Election Day fate of serial-loser Hillary Clinton, and the liberal “fake news” media is on their side.

All I can say is if any rioter expects to ransack my property and harm me or my loved ones he had better be bulletproof.

Take a look at the electoral map. Those blue places will be where the SHTF. The rest of us are pretty well off. “Revolutionaries” tend to be the college educated idiots in European Marxist revolutions. Little do they know they’re the first one at the guillotine.

I was thinking of that but my 74 year old mind failed to locate where the thought was.
