That is a stupid response.

Crazy people think that it’s others that are crazy and that they’re the ones with the sane minds. You use the word stupid while not recognizing that, it’s you with the stupidity.

..................

first, I did not say you were crazy. I said your response was stupid. A stupid response is not thought out, not informed, and it is obvious that you are not either thoughtful or informed.

War comes down to survival and power and those are the items for both.

Civil wars, just like any other war, is not forever. And the survivors of civil wars are not all criminals and violent. Pillage and plundering will occur, during and after the war, but, if any kind of civilized people do survive, they will be the ones restoring civility and peace and law-and-order. The criminals will not be among the regular population.

Your kind of mindset belongs in Neanderthal times, when it was likely, kill or be killed, steal and survive, or hide and hope not to be noticed.

Z Have you notices that, after the American civil war, we got a peaceful and prosperous nation, with all sides eventually coming together to restore law-and-order? And, you didn’t have to be there in the 1860s to notice how everything turned out.

You are limitid in your thinking if you are only looking at the American Civil war or even our revelution as examples of war and aftermath.

Wars throughout history have been brutal and painful and people often do not come together afterwards. The US has traditionally required people to put their ethnicities aside. However that is not how the world works. And if you think I am talking about Neanderthal behaviors, you have not read any history of wars. Not Neanderthal, recent. That is what I mean by stupid, uninformed and you don’t know it. I recommend that you read war history then call me.

I have been here coming up on 26 years and I am certainly one of the lesser lights. However I am nowhere near crazy or stupid

first, I did not say you were crazy. I said your response was stupid.

Wow! You really are stupid and dense and crazy.

My example about crazy people was only meant to show how it is that someone who uses the word stupid is not recognizing himself as being that which he accuses others of being; the 'craxy' analogy I offered was only to demonstrate the point of someone who can't recognize his own incapacity.

Thus, you did demonstrate how stupid you do sound.

Wars throughout history have been brutal and painful and people often do not come together afterwards.

Duh!!!

Nobody is arguing those points.

The points were about 'civil wars' and not all civil wars lead to endless wars and/or endless disagreements.

When war leads to endless strife, it just means that the whatever the civil war, was not ended, and whatever remains will be at war forever. meaning that, the civil war was not about a nation unable to get its people to get along; it was about a nation that never should have been a nation with so many gripes and so many people that would never come together. The middle-east, for example, could never be at peace among themselves, because, they have far too many disagreements and far too many differences within their 'tribes' and so many 'leaders' that can never give up their ways of thinking and would prefer to fight it out. Muslims will forever be at war with non-Muslims and within their own religious factions.

The U,.Sl doesn't and never had the same issues as Muslims, and though there were/are many disagreements within the 50 states, whatever comes after a civil war, could be a much stronger nation, with much better laws and fewer disagreements. Civil wars among reasonable people should not end with criminals and thievery and murders and permanent distress. Remember that, my original post was about a new American civil war, and not about wars in general around the world.

If you had stuck to the subject matter at hand, and not gone off on a tangent, you would have have made such a fool of yourself.
