FWIW, I’m not sure I would call the arrest of Mr. Drabman an “obvious abuse of power,” at least at this point in time. And it seems to be a stretch, to suggest that such an arrest has any potential to spark a civil war. On the other hand, Mr. Lincoln considered Southern threats to secede to be nothing more than yammering & silly nonsense, and that peculiar blindness actually helped precipitate the costliest war in American history...

I would agree with you. The question I am raising is what would it take for all the tough talking bravados to take up arms in a 2nd civil war?

My contention is nothing. They've got too much tied up in their jobs, their mortgages, their car payments and their kid's weekend soccer practice............

Nobody flocked to Klamath Falls to help the farmers with their fight against the federal govt. on water rights.

Nobody flocked to help Ammon Bundy in his standoff against the BLM, and nobody rose up in protest against the killing of LaVoy Finicum as a result of that standoff.........

IOW, there ain't gonna be no second civil war...........
