We would not need a civil war if we would actually allow secession. When we have two groups of people with such opposite political philosophies, why should they be forced to live with each other?

I agree with you wholeheartedly. The problem is, the left cannot, by its very mindset, allow separation. The left is akin to cancer: It must devour all that is not like it, with the ultimate goal of having all become just like it. The left and the muzz pretty much believe in the same thing, and both are equally fatal to freedom. That’s why there is an alliance of sorts between the left and the muzz.

Because the Socialist need someone to feed them!

If we do have another civil war, it won't be regional based like the first one; so allowing secession would have no relieving value. The next civil war will be values based (traditional God-fearing Americans vs the Godless Leftists). A future civil war would be chaotic and literally neighbor against neighbor.

Depending on the sparking issues, the US military could go either way, but probably would splinter like the last time.

Geographically, traditional-minded Americans have the advantage by dominating the countryside; the liberal urban areas would be choked off from most of their needs.
