How Do Civil Wars Happen?

You’re right. Sheriffs and police in red America want us on their side and we want them on our side.

Most veterans would join the right side. Active duty military is hard to say but I’d say most of them would side with the people.

The biggest advantage we have is we are fighting for the country and what she stands for that we love and cherish. The American spirit lives in us.

The commie bastards have nothing good or decent on their side.

One side in a divided country decides it can't stand the other side to the point of homicidal rage. That rage may be justified or unjustified, but regardless blood is spilt until one side surrenders, one side is destroyed, or the country is destroyed.

Hope it doesn't come to that. Am of the belief that the first Civil War should have been negotiated to find the solutions that would satisfy both sides. The Democrats and Republicans have the responsibility to every American to try to come together before one side declares war against the other.

It's the Democrats pushing us to Civil War not the right. On the right their is respect for the law and acceptance of elections. Do they think Obama was not an anathema to us? We just hold it in and they take that as weakness.

Look, our side doesn't protest and bitch. No, when we've had enough we form infantry regiments.

Am well aware of which side is trying to start a war, still think it should be avoided if possible.

Good read.

The “Imprimis” publication from Hillsdale College two months ago had an interesting article on civil war — cold and hot. We’re cold, but could be hot be soon.

If the choice is between what we have now and war I choose the later. But that is getting ahead of ourselves. There is always the chance that secession can be achieved peacefully.

We cannot live with each other and it is not fair to them nor to us. There has to be a physical separation.

Very good read.

What a great article. It has changed Mr perspective on what is happening. And there’s explains a lot of the frustrations I have been having watching what has been going on. Thank you for the ping.

Ping.

Because the “elections” are completely fraudulent, corrupted, and the results utterly invalid.

[EternalHope]

This is a truly great article.

It left out a very big point: The other side is openly rigging elections.

“The armed forces will side with their generals.”

Only until they start taking Iraq-level casualties whenever they set foot outside secure hardened base areas.

Thanks for ping, pinging it on.

Since there will be no uniforms just look for the Beto sign in their yard.
