It is indeed a sad and repellent story, but why would it provoke a civil war? On what basis do you imagine this country would do such a thing?
There was a civil war over the institution of slavery. Mass murder is a greater evil.
This alone would probably not provoke a civil war. However, given all of the many vast differences socially, morally, etc. (i.e., Red/Blue States)...I think the frustration level is heading rapidly toward a peak. I know I am frustrated.
I am frustrated with empty-headed voters and the MSM and all of the liberals and ACLU and the omnipotent Supreme Court and on and on it goes. I think conservatives are becoming increasingly more angry with the inability to get the message out and to have it articulated accurately.
I can feel the frustration and the anger as I read the various threads and posts. If I am feeling as frustrated and as angry as I am with this wretched evil where a baby can be thrown up on a roof to die and bake in the sun like a raisin; where John Bolton would rather resign than tolerate the abuse he and his family would have been bound to suffer; where the ACLU has an inordinate amount of influence in our civil, private, and public forums; where fools are discussing only talking with Iran and Ahmadinejad, etc. ad nauesum, then I assume others are equally frustrated. I think we are headed fast toward critical mass. People can only only stand so much injustice and wrong.
Please do not assume that I want a civil war. It just seems inevitable to me. I believe we must continue to pray as never before and to work harder than ever. I also can not help but think of the Declaration of Independence, where a group of Americans, who did not want to, but eventually had to throw off the government because of the innumerable abuses suffered at the hands of King George; all delineated in the Declarartion.
