    That sounds cool fun and easy but armed and untrained and undisciplined nut jobs crawling from the woodwork is not going to be a clean finish for anyone involved. Obviously this isn’t meant to be a deterrent for the justice system… but we’re working on a different tier here. It’s not going to be high profile business and agencies fighting each other. It’s going to be normal working people being attacked by deranged wing nuts and always by surprise, because there will be no centcom for them.

    So, if you think you’re going to be prepared for an outcome like this, I do wonder what you’re packing.

      As someone outside the country, I think uncle sam will do just fine vs meal team 6.

        It’s more about having an insurgency within the states. The measures to contain and crush that will make everyone suffer.

          Nah, these morons aren’t smart or subtle enough to “go to ground” and make enduring sleeper cells. Remember, they Livestreamed their crimes on 1/06 and refused to wear masks to conceal their identities at the one time in history it wasn’t a massive red flag to do so.

          Once again as someone outside the country, you guys are due for getting knocked down a few pegs. Like what did you think the end result of this level of bipartisan bullshit would be if not civil war?

            Do you really think any of us (sane) people wanted this bullshit. Half of this has been spawned by the rich and the religious zelots. The other half by not cleaning up the last one properly. Seriously its not talked about too much but parts of the south became guerilla warzones after the civil war.

      Dramatic and doomerpilled.

      The US military will aggressively dismantle any secessionist activity if it comes to blood. Hopefully we get to see some combined arms ops with the good tech for once instead of holding back.

      Meanwhile I’m gonna crack cold ones while I watch red states suffer from their own actions.

        There will definitely be no mistakes they make that cost uninvolved citizens their lives. No matter what, the U.S. military will never be wielded against opponents of the ruling regime, nor in a way that serves the personal interests of those in power.

        Seriously, this is a bad outcome. This is a worse outcome. I’d rather have individuals crawling from the woodwork than the U.S. military being used against citizens.

      No it’s not. These fuck twits are about as inept as a guard in Metal Gear Solid. Throw em a few bones of disinformation, throw em in a bad scenario trapped, light em up. Rinse, wash, repeat. They will infight the fuck out of enough defeats.

      “Civil War” is just some fear mongering posturing. Nothing more.
