CHAOS!

This is no way directed to any Democrat.

This is directed to those who believe a civil war is needed if their party fails to have the votes for their choice candidate.

*******************************************************

You may have the vast number of weapons and ammo, but you must consider the outcome.

War is not pretty. Death would be preserved beyond the moment. Our society that exist today would end as you know it. No quick 30 minute grocery shop trip, no quick fill up at the local gas station. No freedom of pass on your daily commute. No one to bury you.

You may BELIEVE your bad azz with your AR-15, but consequences do occur when both parties meet together.

Our future generations would suffer for decades, reconstruction for the south took decades in late 1800s.

Jobs would be gone, money would be worthless.

Your choice maybe among very limited few and your cause would end quick.

If those words don't communicate proper onto you, here is the simple message.

CSA ended 1865, Nazis ended 1945, Trump lost 2020!

The divide isn't in regional context. It's Rural vs, Urban. One side fighting to preserve a reality that doesn't exist.

elections they lose.

I suspect the plan is create chaos while it is sent to the courts, hope for a maga judge and if not just create so much chaos that the country is done, over.

If we miraculously survive next Nov, and trump is allowed to run again, there is no outcome that includes democracy lives on.

eurocentric, white christians are no longer dominant. For years these folks have been constantly told they will be "replaced" when certain people take over, so in their view violence is the only solution.

But that's only true if there is somebody willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to stand up and oppose them.

When growing up, I memorized the Gettysburg Address, and I take the meaning of the sacrifice of those Union/Federal soldiers that died back then to heart:


Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
