People with tools will be valuable. No one mentioned sabotage. Who's going to run the utilities, who runs gas stations? Life in northern states will be rough in winter if natural gas and/or electricity aren't reliable, unless you have a stove and a lot of dried wood.

Communists kill millions of THEIR OWN people. When will the leftists realize they themselves are on the chopping block.

“Prepare for the worst,.. and hope for the best. “
“If you can’t protect it,.. you don’t own it “
******************************************************************************************
If you have demoKKKrat DA particularly if Soros donated to their election, then prepare for the worst.

And should you have to protect it-the only words you should speak to any one are “get me a lawyer”. The bar-owner that committed suicide-all he did was defend himself. Originally it was ruled self defense.

However, it was turned over to a special prosecutor and grand jury. The defendants statements to the police were used against him. And he was found guilty-then he suicided.

This is very good advice. Name, rank, serial# sort of info and that's it. I like the police. But in this situation, you've got to keep your mouth shut. They've got their job. They're going to follow orders. And you've got to keep your mouth shut. As politely and respectfully as possible!

More likely intifada like we saw in Israel. Or the Troubles in Northern Ireland.

I know someone who the police picked up and questioned. When they asked the gal to take a lie detector test, she said she had to talk to her parents first.

Parents sent her to a lawyer—note if the parents had gone with her the attorney client privelege can be breached—must be private communication.

Lawyer told her to refuse any further discussion, and if arrested, to contact the lawyer. He said if they arrest you, they were going to anyway, but they could question you for hrs. before doing it.

He also advised her to tell her friends the same-no talking without a lawyer.

No matter how you slice it, war is hell. Everyone would lose.

I hate the no-win scenario. I especially despise those who put us in this spot.

No quarter, no mercy. Take out the garbage.

It seems to me this is a subject where one must choose one’s words carefully. Your post, to put it gently, did not meet that standard.

Why would any sane person be against blue areas and entire blue states wanting to secede peacefully? Are you mad?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I see you do not live in a “blue area.”

This mythical peaceful secession, a leftists wet dream, has been tried before in India BTW. The partition of India into India, East and West Pakistan in 1949.They are still shooting and bombing each other 71 years later.The same would happen here.

Just have a good old CWII and cleanse America of the anti-constitutionalists for good? Thats tempting.

If I compare my standard to yours????

Shut up. There is nothing wrong with what I said. It is true. If they want to have war, they will get what they need.

Here's to hoping you and yours don't get cleansed.

Only China wins.

Your perspective is very interesting. We agree that a civil war would benefit our enemies.

I think about this. We have boomers, attack subs , AC carrier groups, foreign bases nuclear and conventional air wings + missile systems . those assets would need to stay capable and vigilant. How does that work.

Communists in control or not but it’s interesting to think about.

It may just come time to preemptive knock factions to the grave for national survival. Depends on who has the will / power.
