He says the moment someone goes against the consitution he’ll defend it. How about going to D.C. and do your job.

I know that’s going to make a lot of people angry. And he’s right in that the military will fire on civilians. And that’s the scary part. Another example of where the constitution is trampled on.

With that said, I’ve not seen anyone on here calling for a civil war. I’ve seen people say it might come to that.

I have to wonder if this wasn’t written by a liberal who’s scared to death there’s going to be a civil war. In this day and age we need to check out everybody. Even those who profess to be on our side.

I tend to agree, this seems written to incite, and is TOTALLY IRRATIONAL. The worst that happens is what happened in Hondorus, where the military (with Court backing) says “that’s enough” and takes back the country. Civil wars simply don’t HAPPEN because of a health care bill.

"Sgt C" mentioned rough, tough, combat "secretaries." She might be a girl. ;-)

...guess she or he didn't want to be caught disseminating seditious anti-public-affairs materials. The National Guard (Army) is for putting down sedition, and each of the states' National Guard units belongs to the governor of each state. The governor of each state has the last word, and the federal government only uses NG soldiers with their permission. Riots by criminals, yes. But no, in a physical civil disagreement (if that were to happen), they won't stay cohesive to go around killing everyone. Each of them has his individual political opinions and loyalties, too. Leaders would cool any such excitement off, before it could happen.

There might be a few troublemaking jackasses here and there, but there's not going to be any civil war, as things are. There's no need. There's a potential for too much suffering in that, and most of us know it. After our usual political processes, there's the 1st Amendment and the marketplace.

It's already being fought, so to speak, in the marketplace, and many others have joined Bill Gross in doing so. See what's happening to bonds, which is were the chain reaction begins.

Without revenues, wanna-be despots have nothing. They are properly and quickly replaced. And no, after the default (if it comes to that), we won't have despots from the other political party, either. We're all pretty well fed-up with the anti-American globalism. They'll love their American neighbors here or be stripped of all of their wealth for their special interests by market maneuvers.
