My great grandfather in Kentucky (yes, great-grandfather, born in 1814) fought in the civil war... His family was slaughtered by 'bushwhackers' when he was away from his home. He moved on to Missouri and married again and had four sons... Even his history does not move me to entertain the notion of another civil war.
Indeed. I do not want it to come, but I think it will. I had family on both sides of the last civil war, and I will have family on both sides of the civil war I fear is coming soon. God help us all.
