Combat vet with the 75th, or a POG who graduated Ranger School?

I have made some fairly in depth posts/comments in the past regarding the statist/control freak nature of many in the military.

Some are horrible people.

Some are good people.

This race is split. Much like our country. It's likely reflective of 2A freedoms...about half for and half against.

Can we just go ahead and peacefully Balkanize yet?

I'm afraid if we balkanize we'll have a Man in the High Castle type scenario where our foreign enemies take advantage. In this case, I see China taking over east of the Rockies.

That's actually one of my primary concerns with a "Civil War 2" scenario. I mean, a foreign power would have to be stupid to not capitalize on large scale instability in the US.

+1. Been thinking that for a long time.

I don't want to make the mistake of the last civil war and think one good battle and it is over. It was naive then and just criminal stupid now.

Having said that.

I would say the vast majority of the military and police excluding a few NE cities are conservative, and the same holds true for gun ownership in the USA.

But anything less than major blood letting, would not solve anything.

In order to prevent outside powers from capitalizing on it, violence must be massive, brutal and swift. Time frame from start to finish must be less than a month, or we are going to end up in a worse situation than we are in now.

Are they both billionaires with lots of people ready to inherit their wealth?

Well... in a way. I went to Iraq.

This notion of a foreign power taking over in the event of a civil war here, relies on ignorance of our own efforts to interfere in and prop up our preferred side in civil wars in the Middle East, in Afghanistan, in Vietnam to name a few.

Those are all smaller populations and land masses than CONUS.

I see what you are saying, but . . .

The Democrats don't even try to hide their radicalism any longer, they actually run their campaigns on it. Many in this country would welcome a Russia / CHICOM invasion and work alongside them as collaborators.
