New data indicates America on the verge of civil war, and neither side will back off
The National Sentinel ^ | 5/2/19 | Vicki Batts

Will the United States soon enter a second civil war? Polling data from Georgetown University shows that an overwhelming majority of Americans believe a civil war is coming down the pike — and most people aren’t actually willing to make the changes necessary to stop it. Across the board, Americans are doubling down on their political values and are refusing to compromise on the issues tearing the country apart.

The test comes soon - when the Hispanic voting population is large enough to give the Left a permanent lock on the Electoral College.

Then Republicans will run Hispanics. Cubans usually vote Republican. Mexicans whose families have been here for along time are more assimilated and aren't in love with illegals.

And you are assuming the current Democratic coalition will remain together -- that African-Americans, Latinos, Asians, gays, feminists, labor unions, and White liberals think alike and won't come into conflict.

They have been infringing like a son of a bitch. In fact, they have infringed so far that some have bucked here and there. See what happens next.

Will the United States soon enter a second civil war?>

If that happens, it will be the Sanctuary Cities/States against the rest of us.

And most of it will indeed take place in sanctuary cities.

Preparation is key if you live in one and are a known Trump supporter.

I often think that a civil war in this country mostly be in the cities.

You’re typical gang of leftist revolutionaries aren’t exactly going to march out into rural areas and pick fights that they’d lose in a nanosecond. They’ll do what we’ve seen on TV ... they’ll cause civil unrest in cities ... they’ll burn, loot, and riot ... then they’ll start killing one another after things get out of control.

If anything, I’d expect to see the cities under control of various warlords at the end of the first phase of the civil war with them dying out after they realize that cities aren’t great places to grow food, raise livestock, or trading when violent morons are running the show.

Seriously, can anyone really see these Antifa types marching around in rural areas? The farthest away from the cities they’ll get are the suburbs, but the libs in those communities aren’t, for the most part, dyed in the wool commies ... they like their McMansions and toys and only vote for Rats since they feel bad and want to look like they’re helping those less fortunate with other people’s money.

I agree Mueller had it in for Trump, evidenced by what he did to Trump associates and the fact he packed his team with Democrats, and so on.

Why he didn’t fabricate the report? My guess his hatred for Trump didn’t trump Mueller’s sense of self preservation? Trump over 2 years didn’t fold. So Mueller was on the verge of a coup de tat and chickened out? Trump’s base was solidly behind him and in fact Trump even gained some never Trumpers on the right, like Graham and Cruz, to his side. There is also the chance that among the public in general, Trump is more popular than the polls suggest. Mueller would have been standing before the American public looking like Mike Myers with a head in his fist.

Then Republicans will run Hispanics.

The real world disagrees with this wish-casting.

Typical load of crap from one happy to defend traitors.

Firing on federal property and stealing federal arms and installations (Sumter was a federal installation which you must be ignorant of to say such stupid things) are sufficient causes for war.

The Secessionist fools had been urging secession for 20 years. Lincoln had very little to do with that period and was, in fact, somewhat of a moderate.

" Sign in to confirm your age This video may be inappropriate for some users. "

WTF is that?

It's a tactic that Google/YouTube uses to partially censor videos they want to restrict. By making people "log in" to view it, they convince a lot of people not to bother.

This article explains their various methods pretty well.

Yes they have. It's likely the ignition point.

I do recall seeing a video several years ago of Marines training in the Yuma area on how to round up citizens.

Ah yes, the undistributed middle rears its ugly head, as in:

[1]All forces used to 'round up' citizens will be military;

[2]All Marines are members of the military;

[3]Therefore, Marines will be used to 'round up' citizens.

Trump’s re-election will be the equivalent of the firing on Ft. Sumpter.

No. That is an urban legend. A USMC officer at the war college wrote a scholarly paper on the topic of would Marines operate against civilians.
It never turned into “rounding up civilians” exercises.

You point out how the demographics are very complex in this divide. It really isn’t state vs state but city vs suburbs/rural in some cases or city/suburbs vs rural in other cases. Even Texas, you would have the Dallas core of liberals vs the rest of the state.

” Ft. Sumter was just a response to the war fleet arriving at Charleston harbor. “

Bullcrap. That was an American fleet, arriving in an American harbor.

I’d certainly agree that Google search results now suck compared to the early days.

It’s both content censorship and financial ad revenue related.

Still sucks. Google B evil....

The right to independence as outlined in the Declaration of Independence, makes all real property in the areas they inhabit, theirs, not the Federal governments.

If your theory were correct, the British would still be occupying forts in America. Your theory is clearly incorrect.

And no, they weren't "traitors" as the attempt to try Jefferson Davis for treason illustrates. Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase made it clear that "secession is not rebellion".

He also told Federal prosecutors that if they put Davis on trial, they would lose everything in court they had won on the battlefield.

If they can't declare Jefferson Davis a "traitor", I don't see how they could make any lesser Confederate into one.
