You’ve read to many Braken novels.

You still believe in an 1860 scenario. Perhaps you harbor fantasies that you will be an officer in your own New Confederate army. An army raised of states. Maybe you will even be the reincarnation of General Jackson or Lee. Then, after putting on your epaulets, you will storm across the battlefield, and take on the enemy.

The only problem is, geography, culture, population, economics, and military foundation are not cooperating with your comic book hope.

This is not 1860.

A civil war today would not have the convenience of starkly defined borders that contain united hegemonic populations.

Liberals, the godless, sexual perverts, fascists, Marxists, and all of the rest of our internal enemies are in all 50 states and all 3,007 counties.

There may be house to house fighting and riots in cities. In fact, those have routinely occurred in our history. But the next civil war, if there is one, will be vastly different from last one.

it would be interesting to take a poll of people in the military and law enforcement to see how many are (still)liberal.

I can see a scenario where Trump is impeached on phony evidence and convicted and removed from office. I can see about 30 states passing ordinances not recognizing the outcome of said impeachment and recognizing Trump as President. I can see Trump flying to one of those states and setting up a a new federal govt there. I can see those states then seceding. Yes I can see that happening.

Your scenario the states just melt away like they don't exist.

You’re right Sky - I think the next CW (God forbid) would be house to house and no organization.

Like Afghanistan or Somalia.

I can see even idiot FReepers shooting each other to death in the streets. That’s how rampant evil is these days.

It won’t be Blue vs. Gray v.2.

In most cases. However we are fortunate enough to live on a peninsula, the base of which contains all the liberals and the entry to the rest of the country.

Additionally we reside among a huge hunting and boating population. So all we worry about is staying overstocked. And we did a lot of canning last year.

On our road we utilize our neighbor's shooting range for practise and btw, he has access to most local officials and news...if they come from his direction he will take them out before they get to us. And our place is not so easy to get to and forget it if you have one of those cute little cars. Especially in the winter.

There is a national guard - a huge one - training camp nearby and we are not sure what that will mean.

In the meantime people in cities should have getaway plans and all Michiganders are welcome to camp on our land.
