Are Battle Lines Being Drawn?
What started in whispers is now appearing in print…American Thinker, Market Watch, Huffington Post, Washington Times, National Review, Daily Wire, Breitbart, Real Clear Politics, and The New Yorker, among others. They are writing about the possibility of a second civil war in this country, a redo of Democrats’ nullification of federal law, the insistent opposition and rejection of the lawful election of a president, the movement of many of our citizens to a more agreeable state, and acts of violence.
These elements of civil war are now with us once again…nullification, separation, rejection, and violence. We can argue on the order, but the same elements that 159 years ago transported this country from peace and unity into the hell of armed conflict have reappeared, complete with a great social issue of our own…abortion.
You must have missed the biggest, most destructive, violent and deadliest riots in modern U.S. history. LA '92. Total chaos, totally out of control. Now imagine 25 major cities and everything in between doing the same. Could it happen? I dunno.
I believe there will be similar civil wars fought across the planet at the same time.
And foreign entities involved to try to gain influence.
When Joan Baez was asked why she didn't sing this song the way it was written, she replied, "I sang it the way I heard it."
Other than the shit hole cities, California is a great state filled with great Americans. Should California secede there would be a terrible California civil war, shit hole cities versus American California.
I still think the Democrats are willing to risk starting a civil war because, like Hillary, they think the American people are really behind them and will step up and sweep them to a victory in that war.
“Canada Free Press” is passionately Conservative and passionately pro-USA.
I read several of their articles each week at Free Republic.
The quality of writing and research at CFP is equal to or better than many of the USA websites that appear at Free Republic.
Are Battle Lines Being Drawn?
Nobody’s right, if everybody’s wrong.
It’s time to stop now.
No, the CSA was comprimised of men who had a familiarity with weapons, and they were mostly harder men that the men today. Lived closer to the real world.
“The constitution must be adopted in toto and forever. It has so been adopted by the other states.” James Madison
Ok. Who is going to be the slaves?
Liberalism has never meant any of things. I used to be a liberal. Liberalism is totalitarianism. Up until recently it couldn’t call itself that. It can now. It’s called “Democratic Socialism’’.
No. Never. This is The Untied States of America. Not some Balkanized collection crap holes. And this isn’t 1861. It’s 2020. The modern ear, The Nuclear Era. Because Jefferson spoke of secession as being a right doesn’t mean it IS right. The guy wasn’t perfect. Despite the years between 1861 and 1865 this is still the greatest nation on Earth and scheming tin pots dictators in the wings and well meaning, romantic fools with their notions of tribal like cabals of states and satraps are dangerous, moral idiots who , for the most part, haven’t a clue as to what they’re really talking about or envisaging.
PING
"... must you make the same mistake everyone makes on this subject? You skipped over the most important part: SECESSION of state(s). IT DOESN’T HAVE TO MEAN WAR.
It’s a good website. What’s your problem?
THEY (PUS - Progressive United States) could have open borders (every third world hellhole could empty into them), free medicare for all, $30 an hour minimum wages, rent controls, gun confiscations, reparations for ALL people of color, AND they would have the money to do it because white liberal 'elites' have most of the money in the country. They can steal from their own to pay for all their 'sky's the limit programs'...
No fossil fuels in PUS, no borders, no jails, prisons or police... Icing on the cake for PUS? They could disarm all citizens, allow abortions up to the day of birth - and two weeks past that point if the child is ugly... WE WOULD NOT BE THERE TO STOP THEM... THEY COULD DO WHATEVER THEY WANT.
And our side? CUS (Conservative United States)... We could keep the Constitution we have now and all the rights it grants to free citizens AND we would be rid of all the folks who hate us, who try to indoctrinate our children, who bring illegals in to keep wagers low, and who hate our God and our right to defend ourselves.
It's a win for both sides. They get what they want - and are rid of us. AND we get what we want and are rid of them...
A divorce is the answer...
I remember talking to my granddaddy about the war. He had known many veterans when he was young. I posed the question to him “What if we had left Fort Sumter alone?” He was really stumped. He was a retired Army general so he certainly knew the military. We ended up writing down several scenarios. I wish I had kept them. He thought finally that there was a decent possibility that cooler heads might have prevailed had the South just waited it out.
I thought we would be “Jesus Land”
You get it. Bravo.
Most of the Armed forces will not side with the USA if there is a split. Count on that.
