(12,712 posts)You may get more chaos and harm, but I wonder if these rapid keyboard warriors even have a tiny little bit of sense about how impractical their "hot civil" war is? There are so many factors that make that idea a big nothing hamberder that I would rather they just find out for themselves.
I imagine they are clueless, but they may enjoy getting all fired up about the idea. The point was to incite fear and embolden the decrepit to think thoughts bigger than their tiny little Tootsie Pop brains can manage.
Benedict Manson is just whipping up his frothy base, and yeah, people can get hurt. That's my concern.

They FBI should be at their doorsteps to arrest them.

(12,712 posts)My tactical advice is that they better have dozens of cases of of defibrillators and plenty of oxygen tanks on hand.
Imagine a war where all the soldiers are dropping like flies without anybody even shooting at them on Heart Attack Hill. It was the climb...the climb, I tell ya'.
Completely agree

(53,758 posts)I don't want them to be able to make it back to their garages...I want them laying out in the street or a field, feeding the carrion...because that's all they're worth...food for crows, coyotes, and vultures....

(12,712 posts)Well, I kind of see what you said as their rather quick Waterloo or a fast Custer's Last Stand.
These notions of a war are more like asking to be arrested and even charged with sedition and other criems.
Ooo, big surprise. It is kind of like the outcome for some of the clowns who stormed Charlottesville. They should pay attention to that. They are just going to make themselves and their families miserable, and, for no actual reason worth fighting for. Being manipulated so easily reveals their level of intelligence and capacities, as well.
Sure, there are groups out there that are well armed and ready to go, but the numbers are the giveaway. Bravado and ignorance are not a good tactic.
Oh, but I am implying or expecting that they might think it through first.
It's all just noise.

(7,314 posts)people out there who arent taking Trumps tweet as a joke.

Who thinks it was a joke? The mad man is serious, and we should be too.
Whenever there's a mass shooting, people always wonder if there was any sign that could have prevented it.
Well here's a billboard sized sign of a coming shooting. Nothing will be done.

(5,914 posts)Driving your car to the grocery store today than you are to ever get killed in a mass shooting. So relax.
I'm not saying that there's not a threat. But it can be, should be, and will be handled on a case-by-case basis as the real, committed crazies come out of the woodwork. The first few new idiots that get handed 340-year prison sentences (like the dude in Charlottesville) will inform the others.

Hell, I'm 74 years old. I'm not going to fight in any civil war. However, I can still shoot out of my window at any morons marching down the street to go after whoever it is they're after.

(48,986 posts)So, have I you twit. My government sent me to Guatemala during their civil war. I believe WITH A PASSION we are headed for a civil war in this country. The only question is how do we get there? It most certainly will be because the left drags us there. Will it because of what the left does to Trump? Or will it be another issue that causes a fracture? - Such as when Trump places RBG
All I know is this: The left has put us in a place where we can't live together much longer.

France helped last time. We dont want China stepping in uninvited.
We dont want to lose and be under the new commies.
Russia is pro-Christian, not fond of Islam, has a flat tax, supports gun ownership, and most importantly hates Soros and globalism.
We could do worse for a sponsor.
We can save our country if we are willing to accept help when we need it.

Now with the help of the taxpayers, he's paying the money back. But are you willing to go to war and die for this guy, WHY!! You mean to tell me there's no other republican conservative out there better than trump!!! Is this political party so full of stupid people that they can't find a candidate better than trump!! They're willing to go to war and die for this moron!!!! WoW!!!
