Who is going to fight whom and where and for what? In 1861, there were identifiable sides, geographically separate, with different cultures. Now we are much more intermixed. We also have a gigantic government that is armed to the teeth and ready to stomp on anybody who tries to start something. I think something would have to happen that changes the reach of the government before any sort of civil war could occur. There is too much friction to start the slide as things are.

The government about which you speak is comprised of citizens of every persuasion imaginable, politically and otherwise.

The unanimity of government would cease to exist in a civil war.

The end result would be strife within the forces of government as well as the non governmental participants.

It would seem that the general consensus is that civil war is a bad idea, a no win conflict ... so lets don't have one.

Come election time "we" can vote and hopefully eliminate corruption and abortions and murder by cop, senseless war abroad, lower taxes, stop the immigration of anti socialists, e.g. ....

Voting is the answer, voting is painless (the end result might not be but ....), voting won't involve any real, meaningful, personal sacrifice.

O.W.

Yes, O.W., I think you've got a grand thought right there! That has to be the answer to all of our troubles. (shhhh, I think they are going back to sleep now)

I hope I am with Jesus before it happens. As bad as things seem here right now it will be a mere shadow of the reality of a civil war. I'm not so sure it would be a life worth living.

Voting won't restore EBT cards when they stop working. At first democrats fight each other over food in the cities and large metropolitan areas. Then they spread out into the countryside foraging for food and shelter where they will find formidable resistance. I would not want to be a city dweller going forward.

Surveillance and other technologies are being used to put a mechanism in place that will make civil war unlikely if not impossible.

Agree. I read an article once, where the writer concluded with this; “It will be far worse than I can even imagine, and I can IMAGINE really horrible things.”

If you are one of those believes that history repeats, really horrible times will plague this country at some point in the future.
