Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire How the US ends up in a real Civil War this Fall

Bingo. Hyperinflation is what will light the fuse. When and if food becomes in short supply, it will no longer be shipped to inner cities. They will become death traps.

That or an EMP event, man-made or natural.

Dunno... that phrase "Australian style gun laws" comes out quite a bit from Hillary's mouth.

Everytime I start to think we're close to civil war, I look around and see a bunch of fat, dumb and happy people. So long as the majority of Americans are just mildly annoyed with politicians and the food and booze is still flowing, no revolution is forthcoming.

Calhoun,
At best you'd get civil disobedience. Most will simply fail to surrender their guns. It will be the extremely rare case where anyone actually fights the system. It's sad, but there it is.

I believe you to be right.

The percentage of "fighters" in the population has dwindled so badly as to be a non-factor.

wow gonehuntin you truly are a dickhead.

The nation didn't fall apart in 1968. Things were MUCH worse then.

It could be a lot simpler than that.

GOP goes with a brokered convention and nominates Romney or similar.

Romney loses the election to Hillary.

FBI arrests Hillary for her crimes as SOS.

There you go. Every Commie in the country would be out in the streets while the bureaucrats choose sides.

Good grief..

Hitler & Stalin were never matched up in any election.
Your rematch statement is BullShit.

At the rate in which Americans are turning to the Federal government for their needs and wishes, there will be no Civil War...just a few of us old liberty lovers being called dumbasses for not wanting the government to control everything. One needs to look no further than the 'fire to see that Americans have given up on freedom, if they can envision it at all. Free trade, freedom of religion, free choice made America great and is the only thing that could possibly make it "great" again.

It was a good run boys...but there is nowhere left to run to.

So you're not going to help me stock up on a better grade of booze??

"Your community is your country". Hopefully.

Youve basically published a crappy Blue print on how to attack your own country dumbass, you should just STFU !

If you think things aren't worse than 1968 you are clueless as to whats happening.
1968 was just a bunch of hippies and radicals. Now those radicals are in power and we are 19 trillion in debt.

The wheels are about to fall off.
The middle class is being destroyed.
In 1968 the middle class was thriving.

Also government has grown a huge amount since 1968.
The government is the enemy,always has been always will be.
The constitution's purpose is to limit the size of government.

Also politicians are much more corrupt now than then.
Hell, Nixon resigned after being impeached, Clinton's impeachment enhanced his resume!

LoL!!!! Maybe you should go to the link and read up some of the suggested reading material on the left side of the blog, then read about the author on the right side of the blog.

Here's what I am currently thinking about, in a nutshell:

The Future of War. Warfare is rapidly evolving. Torrential improvements in technology and globalization have combined to make it possible for small groups of violent individuals to go to war against nation-states and win. In fact, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are actually accelerating the process of development. How effective are these new methods of warfare? Here's a narrow example. In the summer of 2007, a "defunct" guerrilla group attacked a critical part of a natural gas pipeline in Mexico. This caused a cascade of failure that shut down the just-in-time manufacturing system in the northern part of the country. Network effects turned a $2,000 attack in $2.5 billion in damages. It was so effective, the group did exactly the same thing a month later. Nobody was caught.


•The Future of Peace. Resilient communities. Our tightly interconnected global system is increasingly prone to large shocks from a variety of man-made and natural causes. These shocks can disrupt flows of energy, food, commerce, and communications to produce widespread wealth destruction (at best) and famine/death (at worst). The best way to mitigate these shocks is to build resiliency at the local level so that communities can enjoy the benefits of globalization without being damaged by its excesses. I am exploring what a community needs to do to be resilient.

One thing I'll agree with Lincoln about is "a house decided against itself cannot stand".
Something has got to give, and I think it'll be soon. I've never seen this country so devided as it is now. It was pretty bad in 2008, and though I wanted someone else we got Zero'd. I hoped he would unite the country in spite of my fears.
He strove to do exactly the opposite! He's used race, the economy, foreign policy, religion, and more, to turn us one against another.
He and his "handlers" have orchestrated this devisiiveness in order to weaken us.
I honestly don't know what is gonna happen at this point.
I'm beginning to think a couple million or more dead would be a cheap price to pay to restore our republic. I don't think we can restore it.
Too many "useful idiots" are voting now.

The civil war will begin immediately following the Browns wining the Super Bowl this year.

"I've got some ocean front property in Arizona
If you buy that I'll throw the Golden Gate in for free"

Sounds like it should make the best sellers list. I say finish writing the book.

And there it is........the cold hard truth.(most likely case)
