Several of my ancestors fought and died under this flag 57th Georgia Infantry Company B.
A coincidence. One of my great uncles was an infantryman in 40th Georgia Infantry, Co. B. He was wounded in battle, taken prisoner, sent to the Yankee Prison at Camp Chase in Ohio. He died there of his wounds in 1864. Yankee prisons were not any better than the Confederate prisons.

Union prisons were worse. The mistreatment of Confederate prisoners was not for lack of resources, it was intentional!
Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.
The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.
I can only wish I was still young enough to take active part. Killing a few of the basturds that are destroying my country would give me great pleasure!😀 As it is, I’m fair to middling with a good rifle, I enjoy reloading ammo, and I have a few primers!😀

#3 son and I were talking about this whole Civil War thing the other night.
Since he turned 18, 7 years ago, he's been targeted by the Internet to receive content telling him how close we are to Civil War. Back then, we compared notes, and it was clear he was getting his leg pulled. To this day the big question is "To what end?"
In 1860, there was a clear physical line (mostly) between the two sides. There were a solid issues that had a guy to understand to fight for.
How are the sides in the next war going to be drawn up.
Cities vs Rural? Rural has all the food. That one goes maybe a week and then everyone inside the beltways is starving.
Red State vs Blue? This one is plausible, but Red has the large contiguous land mass, and most of the military assets, and. . . oops: all the nukes. It's a city vs. rural deathmatch on a bigger scale.
What is going to be the rallying cry? Something tells me Trans rights and green energy are not going to be real catchy.
Still, who is trying to get Gen Z riled up to go to war?

The important thing about cities is population, multiple mobility options, and medical facility and supplies. Eat all you want but if your wounded can’t be transported and taken care of the war becomes a very short one.

I bring my undying loyalty to Joe Biden and total trust in our current government, because I know they would never spy on us and use the internet to entrap good citizens.
Really unlikely! There were only about 1/3 the colonists that rallied for the revolutionary war and with the complacency and ineptness of today’s society, I doubt you could raise 1/2 a battalion of men to fight for such a cause and less than half of those would have the stamina to contribute, let alone the support it would take to do it…

Its not the cost of the house. Its the mental mindset of those in any house and what they would do. Most liberal folks that would want to see this don't live in expensive houses.

I had my war between '64 and '67 and was on the losing team (see video from USS Blue Ridge of Huey being shoved overboard). I can't imagine anyone wanting boomer loser for the next team effort.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
Yep, it is... i got along well there when i visited, good folks... but, i am a Hillbilly at heart...... country roads, take me home... to the place, i belong... Wesr Virginia, mountain mama... take me home...
The far left is even more whacked than is this government. They are far more likely to go for broke and start a serious conflict, than is the Right. We will sit at home, looking through our windows, hoping that law enforcement will keep the animals off our property. The left is highly motivated and dedicated to their mission to seize power and control.

Hey, we have to talk some time in private. The only house we can see out of our windows is 2 1/2 miles away. I keep telling my wife that we're an outpost when the SHTF and all of our neighbors already know it.

I'm pretty good with a shotgun. Which seems like a good skill to have with all the drones around in war zones today. I also have a few cases of #4 buck loads.

I was wondering this myself, what is it going to be? Neighbor vs Neighbor? You got a Biden flag in your yard or bumpersticker for Biden so now we are at war in the parking lot of the local grocery store? It is nonsense...
I think what could get real though is if they ever passed a law to ban all guns outright....I think that could be a real trigger, and a time to make a choice. Are you going to go down shooting when they come to take them and make them pry them from your cold dead hands? Or, are you going to trust that the government isn't going to go full Nazi on us after they take our guns, put us in re-education killing camps, etc. and just hand your guns over willingly to the government?

OK. If that's so, the Fort Sumter moment was when the ball fell on 1/1/2024, and less than 5% of folks in Illinois had registered their dirty weapons of war. There are murmurs of denying drivers license renewals, but the actual act of non-compliance is a felony. So now what? Joliet can only hold so many.
Honestly, I don't see shots fired in this. I think Illinois government is waking up quickly to the fact that they've gone waaaaay over the top.
They've basically declared 4 million or more of its citizens felons, and these are the one that have the guns.
Gee, Illinois now has 4 million armed and dangerous fugitives that it didn't have on Dec 31. How's that gonna turn out?
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

They will never backtrack and admit error. They will extend registration a few times.
I'll sit in front of my computer and cheer you on as i have my micky popcorn cases of cold cider ans at least i 1 1/4 " rear prime rib and yourkshire pudding with a side of prawns every day with Salmon fillits every other day , and critic your advancements as i think about our airhead leader.
