“Partisan political division and the resulting incivility has reached a low in America”

...which is insane, given incredible highs of peace & prosperity.

What a stupid poll. We’ve been in a civil war for decades. Unfortunately, it is only the left who is engaging in one. Must play nice ...

Really? Less than 1% of the population care enough to fight.

Everybody else will watch and make snide comments...

Such hysteria. We are nowhere close to a civil war.

You have half the country that can’t even agree on what was considered consensual reality until a few years ago, that doesn’t bode well for social order.

Now would be a fortuitous opportunity to rewatch or watch for the first time this movie:

That Evil, rotten, two-faced judge that put men in jail for 4 years for defending themselves is really bugging me. It’s past time to set these filthy un American scumbags right...

The headline and the story say two different things.

“Battleground: 7 in 10 say US ‘on the edge of civil war”


“The majority of Americans believe that we are two-thirds of the way to being on the edge of civil war. That to me is a very pessimistic place,” said Mo Elleithee, the executive director of Georgetown University’s Institute of Politics and Public Service.

The left has given us the same ultimatum that Islam has:

Submit or Die

Is it a civil war when the Democrat thieves do everything they can to keep the police from putting them in jail?

Globalists puppet masters are hard at work using the media and every political sellout to push full steam ahead. They were so close to their aspirations coming to fruition and simply cannot let Trump get in the way of their plans.

Divide and conquer! So they use all these wedge issues driving us apart. When it’s possible (not easy) to have an actual adult conversation with folks on the other side, find out that there’s still more we have in common than apart.

"But Goeas, not a fan of the president’s, said he believes that Trump didn’t start the rudeness in today’s politics. “He is a symptom of where we are, not ‘the’ disease,” he said, adding, “One of the things that I have focused on as we have gone into this death spiral of incivility in the country, that we had to be at a certain point for Trump to become acceptable.”

Key ppoint. Occasionally the mask slips and you'll see. Remember Carville and the trailer park comment? How about "smelly Walmart people"? "Flyover country"?

Partisan political division and the resulting incivility has reached a low in America, with 67% believing that the nation is nearing civil war, according to a new national survey.

OK, so two-thirds of the respondents believe that we're "nearing" civil war...

“The majority of Americans believe that we are two-thirds of the way to being on the edge of civil war. That to me is a very pessimistic place,” said Mo Elleithee

It's also not what they said. Nobody asked how close we are. If I said that I thought we're 37.5% of the way toward civil war somebody surely would wonder how I came up with that number. Mo, apparently not.

When you can go to prison for four years for defending yourself against Antifa, changes are needed. Not sure how “civil” it will be when we start playing by their rules.

No flame intended, but can anyone explain what a civil war would look like today? So who would I meet up with? Where do I report to since I don't even speak to my neighbors? Who do I trust? Who is going to carry my gun and ammunition to the front line? Will there be Lipitor provided to us senior citizens or should I bring my own? Should I leave my wife and dog home? Who is going to feed me, given my dietary restrictions? What will the enemy look like?

So many questions, so much BS....

Have you seen the weekly murder totals in Chicago? We aren’t on the verge, it’s going on already. We’re just in denial over the existing insurrection in most of our cities, from people killing others openly in their neighborhoods to occupations of our parks and roadways by the homeless to the possibly tens of millions of illegals in the country.

Vast amounts of people never answer to the civil authority.

I have very conservative, level headed Christian friends who I would never even suspect are conspiracy theorsits who say they see the same thing coming.

They told me this a couple years ago at least.

I had to agree with them and I still do.

Just another reason why we’re leaving NY and heading for parts more defensible and safe. And not anywhere within a several hour drive of even a moderate sized city.
