We are in the middle of a second Civil War

All that’s missing are the bullets, artillery and bayonets, and the reason is geography. This one isn’t North against South. It’s neighbor against neighbor.

There’s no cure for ignorance. And the ignorant can’t dumb down those who are aware. That being the case, there’s no knowing how long this current Civil War will continue.

But there can be no doubt that we are a divided country filled with far too much hatred. And there are issues on which it is totally impossible to agree or compromise.

So does anyone have a clue on how or when this crap will end? I don’t.

What’s your take on it?

....but wait for the payoff:

13. Ultimately, the U.S. empire will crash followed by a vast, deep depression...
We sill rupture along ideological and regional lines, much like the Old Soviet Union.

At some point, some idiot will start shooting, and the shooting will last a long time. The victors will define who was virtuous.

As a liberal, I would not want to live in Texas (or anywhere in the South) where ideological cleansing would be expected.

We will not see great armies in blue and gray, fighting set battles on open fields. What we will see will resemble widespread guerrilla warfare with IUD's and death for all.

:p :p

There's some more moderately interesting and unintelligent discussion at the link, but I'm still laughing at warfare with IUD's. :D
