There are many ways this could play out, but as SHTFPlan.com's Mac Slavo notes, few could deny that any number of critical factors are coming to a head right here at home.
If economic collapse is particularly harsh, things could easily spiral out of control. Civil unrest could become the norm, and things could reach a very desperate point.
But depending upon what specific events take place, the police and military may not remain on the side of the federal government, but may support and defend the American people, and what could be a violence, bloody and drawn out struggle to rebuild what once was. What do you think will happen?

As mentioned in Part I of this series, the U.S. is (even after the election) on the cusp of a revolution. The potential for revolution exists in all countries at any given time. We will first list some of the factors that cause an uprising to transform into an all-encompassing revolution.
1.Economic Factors: This could take the form of an economic collapse and/or runaway inflation/devaluation of a nation’s currency, as well as chronic or acute unemployment, lowered manufacturing base accompanied by firings or closure of positions or plants.
2.Warfare: can lead to a country’s dissolution either by insurgency or occupation, followed by an attempt to resist (revolt) either against a foreign oppressor or a country that has (in the manner of the Hessians in the Revolutionary war) “invited in” an occupying army.
3.Religious/Theological: in the form either of persecution of a culture’s predominant religion or factions/schisms leading to confrontation of conflict between two different religious groups.
4.Government Oppression: in the

Three? Try one.
And there goes the “Cops will stand with the citizens” theory.
It all has to do with illegal aliens who do not understand nor love America.
The only way evil can succeed is for good men to do nothing.
When the Clinton criminal group pulls the election with racketeering of the electoral college, then the civil war starts. I have no doubt this will be happening.
***or runaway inflation/devaluation of a nation’s currency,***
Gold used to be worth $19 dollars to the oz. One oz of gold could be cut into 19 pieces and each called a dollar. Then it was $23, then $32, then $35.
Today GOLD is $1500 paper dollars to the oz. That means that if gold were used today, each oz would be cut into 1500 pieces and is called a dollar.
Which means, each dollar is worth less (worthless).
And if the US Government collapses, it will be worth the same as confederate money in 1866.
lol
most of America is too fat to get off the couch or walk through the store without riding an obese cart.
I am not worried.
I DO NOT think this media and blog frenzy is helpful.
Folks need to back off this kind of talk.
Each day some new level of insanity is tossed out on the conspiracy conveyor belt.
In five days Trump will get the 270 electoral votes he needs. At that time it is over.
Chillax already...
Fed.gov, its massive bureaucracy, the Oligarchic Left and now much of our social structure are based on acclimatization of and expectation of continued massive debt in our completely unbacked, printed currency.
any blip in this structure will create utter chaos for many millions of Americans.
Buy your food dehydrator now.
That stuff's worth more today! I have a decent collection of confederate currency. Of course, it's collectible value, but still pretty neat!
Heck, we got people calling 9-1-1 when an order is screwed up at a fast food joint.
Hey! Glenn Beck makes a lot of money by profiting off people’s fears!
You need participants for that to happen. Here are reasons why it WON'T happen:
1. Most of those inclined to participate in such an event are enslaved by debt. Mortgages, health insurance, car payments, car insurance, medical bills, groceries and more have the modern "patriot" so caught up that, most likely, every single bit of that would need to be taken from the person before they jumped into CWII. Otherwise, evils are sufferable and dammit, I need to be able to drink beer while watching the big game on my flat screen 4K TV.
2. Multiple trigger events have come and gone, without any thought, much less action, by the modern day "patriot". While many showed up to Bundy Ranch last year, there should have been ten times the amount of people there. Unfortunately, most were too busy getting up and going to work and paying bills to bother being there. Even worse, there was a certain contingency of so-called "patriots" even CONDEMNING the Bundys. Patriots? Yeah, right.
3. Most of those who like to talk big about CWII also mention the need for a SHTF event or other "trigger" event. As mentioned above, many of those have come and gone, and the "patriot" community continues to sit, thumbs in our noses. What's worse, waiting for that BIG trigger event is useless. By the time that hits, we will be frog soup.
4. There are far too many that incorrectly believe that, somehow, LEO/Military will side with the people. This is a very horrible assumption to make. While there are plenty of honorable, patriotic individuals in these areas, they will, in the end, side with those that sign their paychecks. Before you suggest otherwise, see Ruby Ridge, Waco, Bundy Ranch, Malheur Wildlife refuge. Not only did LEO NOT side with the patriots, they actively fought AGAINST them, in all cases.
Ultimately, this all boils down to one fact: Americans DO NOT WANT real Freedom, for to secure such would require far too much sacrifice.
Oh! Sorry...

Right. Here comes Snyder, right on cue with today’s list...chock full of *can*, *could* *might” and direct from a blogger who sells prep supplies.
The prepper industry is in a lull, due to optimism over Trump.
Snyder has run this game for years. He’s scraping the bottom of his barrel: usually his lists run at least to ten.
SHTFP is also in the business of catering to paranoia.
YAWN. I’m waiting for the sea change: “20 Ways To Jump On The Coming Prosperity Train.
Dehydrator? That’s so 2010. Now, you need a home freeze dryer. Ron Paul has one and they’re only $3k.
