Gomer1066: "America has become once again, "A House Divided" between slave (socialist) states and Free states. Once again the Republican Party represents freedom, and the Democrat Party, has once again become the party of slaves and slave owners. What will the next chapter bring? The Second American Civil War?"

Many people flub this analogy -- somehow equating nasty Republicans with "slave owners" and Democrats with "freedom."
And not all of those flubbers are liberals.

So I'm delighted to see you got it right.
But if we extend the analogy -- remember it was slave-owning Democrats who first declared their secession and then began shooting at Union forces.

Our side -- the good guys -- did not seceed, and did not start a Civil War.

Let's not forget that.

This is my take as well - IF (a big “if”) massive violence breaks out it will be the Left who will be the author.
