Never underestimate your enemy.
Food for thought: in the first Civil War, the citizens never thought neighbor would take up arms against neighbor, brother against brother. We tend to believe the US military, as individual oath keepers, would not take up arms against “us”. We should not forget our history as a people and a nation. Do not even slightly hope for a hot war between factions.
BTW, the founding fathers wrote extensively about the evil of “factions”.
“We tend to believe the US military, as individual oath keepers, would not take up arms against “us”. “
Yup. I know many here belive that the military would never follow such orders, but I think they’re shitling past the graveyard.
It all depends how it’s presented to them. “Restoring order” perhaps?
They can always trump up some incidents of conservative violence (real or not).
