| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/11/2006 12:57:57 PM | Yea...you bet ANTICON...."ALL" of us from the red states want to kill everyone with our evil terrorist ways....Shesh..
My apologies... I didn't mean all people in red states OR "all" right wingers...
What I meant was that this is the way extremist/militants in those places do their violence.. and it will happen. These are only the ways most likely to occur in those parts of the country.
I don't think you'd see LA style riots in Elko Nevada, for instance...
... and I don't think you'd see an Oklahoma City bombing in Chicago by left wing extremists. Of course, I could be wrong, but the question being asked is "likely". | |

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/11/2006 3:56:23 PM | I do not see a civil war coming...Nor do I want one. And yea...some dems need to be shot...along with some Republicans....But why would I waste a good bullet. rightwinggoodguy. I agree with you in part, or at least I can see where your coming from as another conservative. I do agree that as things are now, or that if they remain the same a civil war will not come, because life is to good.
I can also see that if one breaks out, we will be on the same side. Do you agree that the 2nd amendment rights were in, and will be in danger when a globalist (leftie) gets into power? Would you also agree, that they would sell us out, by giving up our rights including the 2nd amendment to the UN? Wouldn't this be an attack on our sovereignty from within?
Lets take this a step further, you have read alot about redistribution of wealth on this thread. You know a globalist loves their world more than country, its not a huge streach to know that under the right circumstances, programs will be made for the redistribution wealth of america in one form or another, as reperations for Americas war on terror.
If that happends, don't you agree a civil war is likely? Its easy to see why the globalist-lefties are against guns, isn't it? I don't see any other reason for Texas to leave the Union, They have the legal right to, but the chain reaction mentioned above will follow if they do. A civil war happend once, and it can happen again....I truly hope it doesn't.
Also I stated before, we can't be hit directly. We already know China has been invoved with interfering with the political system of America. I'm sure there is more going on than we see in the press....A civil war would result in America losing world influance as we have today. What better way to kill America than to have us kill ourselfs instead.
I want us to re-unite as one nation...... | |

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/12/2006 3:36:57 AM | I got a phone call today and was told to cease and desist talking about this subject any where. Now, I asked if that phone call was a joke and more than likely it was, but there was something odd about it. None of you no who I am, and only one of my friends know I post here, was also in the room with me, and wasn't laughing after I told him about the call. Freaked me out for about an hour man!
Anyway, I don't know who the mystery person is,so if your him, pray it stays that way! You just don't prank people like that dumb ass!!
Shit I try to show a potential trap that could lead to a civil war, and some people take it as a freaking joke, and prank me.....geez! Like Rodney Dangerfield, i get no respect!
I am done with this thread anyway...I'm gonna take care of me and my own and the rest can take care of yourselfs...this insulting sh*t an't worth it...I don't want a civil war or anything; but i still see how one could start in the next ten years...I'm just saying that we live in a crazy world, and to expect crazy things. I'm not telling people to put tin foil on there head so the government or some aliens won't read your thoughts, or that the government can put thoughts in your head, or any of that wacked out sh*t....geez! | |

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/12/2006 9:57:03 AM | | Yep the first week I got on P.O.F. I was walking down the street near my home when a new black van with dark tinted windows drove slowley passed me the driver a short haired man smiled at me and I smiled back and then I saw the government plates I realized that I'm never going to be constipated again...It really scared the hell outta me..I really don't like whats going on in Iraq but if G.W.B. Himself was to walk up to me himself and say "Here ya go..I quit! jobs yours..." I'd run for the hills, I don't want his job..I do say alot of sh t about him but truth be told a hundred years from now when were all gone I believe I'll be scrubbing his tioliet for 30,000 years....Then each pope for another 50,000 years.. I don't know if that phone call you got was a joke or what but you wrote about it so I'd say head on down to the store get yourself some comet and scrub pads...Jay Leno and I are going to need alot of help..Gotta go my phones ringing.. | |

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/12/2006 5:24:19 PM | Civil war is coming. It's in the wind. But it won't be rich against poor.
All the divides, Republicans vs. Democrats, Red vs. Blue, white vs. black, have all been engineered by the rich so that us not-so-rich won't get smart enough to realize they're the enemy.
The war will happen between Rural (exurban) America and Urban America. I say exurban as in those white americans who have fled the suburbs for rural up-scale housing developments beyond the outskirts of the city or in small towns. These are the people of the Red States who have shunned life in the City for the Suburbs because of all the crime and disintigration of moral fabric. Who are now fleeing the Suburbs for Small Town because of all the crime and disintigration of moral fabric.
The white Exurbanites look at a map of Red and Blue states and think they have the upper hand. But it frustrates them when they see in reality they don't. They will, with ill-conceived bravado, rise up against the non-white Urbanites only to find themselves severly outnumbered (and in some cases, outgunned).
All the while those rich b(a)stards will be sitting by their pools sucking down margaritas while watching the news, saying, "Look at those dumbf(u)cks. This is more fun than a re-run of 'Lost.'"
----- The next Civil War will be a push-button war. Everybody will be pushing everybody else's buttons. | |

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/12/2006 6:14:28 PM | Another US Civil War... I have to admit it's an issue I have not contemplated. Generally a war of that nature has not just political or philosophical differences, but also geographic boundaries. I can't see rich vs. poor, or even red vs. blue, there simply isn't enough of a saturation in any one region to make such a thing feasible ... remember, a single deciding vote cant turn a red state to a blue state and vice versa, it's not the same as fighting for states rights or to intervene in the possible dissolution of the union. What I do think we'll see by 2008 is the emergence of an equally powerful third political party. One that if properly established will likely carry the Libertarian mantra, which of course being less is more. Taking the power out of Washington and putting it back into the hands of the people can only be done by 1.) Term limits, 2.) REAL campaign reform laws and 3.) Annual recall elections. We have people in Congress that miss well over 50% of the votes, we have fence riders that show up, but then abstain from voting on whatever issue is before them. This sort of thing has the potential to cause another revolution, but the kind we were intended to have every two years … an actual election where the participants are informed and vote people OUT of office rather than just the staus quo popularity contest.

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/12/2006 9:42:09 PM | Actually, until about the 1970s, the US has BEEN in a state of civil war pretty much ever since the big one in the 1860s and before...
Consider:
The war between John Brown's group and the pro-slavers who moved to Kansas from the South to make it a slavery state and of course, the raid on Harper's Ferry by Brown...
The post-war reconstruction, where the black US army from the north occupied the south. Eventually, they were run out by paramilitary groups who continually ambushed and bushwhacked them, much like the insurgents are doing to US troops in Bagdad NOW.
The post reconstruction period when the slavers rose up again. Whites did what they wanted to blacks. the federal government had backed down at consented to let the racist south rule itself.... through secret paramilitary societies and lynchings.
In 1922, during Woodrow Wilson's administration, there were 5 million KKK members in the US... approximately one of every eight white adult males.
There were regular lynchings in the south until about 1940.
After the Greensboro massacre, nothing like it has happened recently... but of course, with an extremist like Bush in power, the question comes up again... | |

Doooooooooooooood you are clearly a product of the Oliver Stone school of critical thinking! Let me see if I can follow your conspiracy logic here... KKK cencus in 1922, and Bush was elected in 2000. 78 years later.... the mark of the beast is 666, and 6 goes into 78 13 times... 13 is an unlucky number therefore Bush is evil. KKK has three letters, GOP has three letters.... coincindence? (I think not!) Greensboro is a city in North Carolina, Crawford is a city in Texas, BOTH are located in the United States! (I'm beginning to see a pattern.) Jimmy Carter, a democrat, was President in 1979 when Greensboro occurred, Bush defeated a democrat to become President in 2000 (I'm starting to follow your thought process...) People were lynched in trees, there are similarities between a tree and a Bush.... (the plot thickens!)
Just to clarify, the Greensboro "massacre" was a confrontation between the Maoist Communist Workers Party and the KKK / American Nazi Party, in which 5 people were killed and 11 injured. Personally I think the police should have stayed out of it and just let them wipe each other out. | |

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/13/2006 8:58:29 AM | | This might be the dumbest thread I have ever read but it is mildly amusing. Yeah we really need a civil war and wipe out one in every four of us like we did last time and make us two very divided and weaker nations. I plan on bootlegging sour mash whisky to the blue states when it happens but may have to move out of Texas as it may very well become a slave nation again as was the intention of James Bowie. | |

Who mentioned Oliver Stone? Who mentioned critical thinking? YOU are tripping on these things. Not me.
13 is an unlucky number therefore Bush is evil.
You're the only one who brought the number 13 into it. Bush is evil because he's evil. No numbers need be involved. All we have to do is see what he'd doing and what he's done. YOU sound superstitious.
KKK has three letters, GOP has three letters.... coincindence? (I think not!)
Very ironic... why did you bring it up? I certainly never tried to make that point. It has nothing to do with me.
Greensboro is a city in North Carolina, Crawford is a city in Texas, BOTH are located in the United States! (I'm beginning to see a pattern.)
Greensboro was a battle; a massacre by the American Nazi Party and KKK and very relevant to our discussion:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greensboro_massacre Rally and attack
"...The generally accepted version of events is that a combined contingent of Klansmen and members of the American Nazi Party attended the rally. Accounts vary as to whether they were set upon by the demonstrators or not, but they were armed, opened fire at the demonstrators, killing several immediately and wounding others, some fatally. Incidentally, much of the armed confrontation was captured by four local news camera crews, the graphic footage of which has been widely aired over the years, fueling speculation the Klansmen and Nazi Party members may have indeed been the aggressors..."
Jimmy Carter, a democrat, was President in 1979 when Greensboro occurred, Bush defeated a democrat to become President in 2000 (I'm starting to follow your thought process...) People were lynched in trees, there are similarities between a tree and a Bush.... (the plot thickens!)
what plot are you talking about? Carter was a civil rights advocate.
Just to clarify, the Greensboro "massacre" was a confrontation between the Maoist Communist Workers Party and the KKK / American Nazi Party, in which 5 people were killed and 11 injured. Personally I think the police should have stayed out of it and just let them wipe each other out.
Let people read about it and see what they think... | |

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/13/2006 11:54:59 AM | Not likely. We got it soft...real soft. Plus we as Americans are generally Lazy. A civil war would take effort and sacrifice. We, as a nation in whole have not sacrificed since WWII. Only the armed services people and their families have suffered from loss and sacrifice since that time. Plus we have no focus. We lose interest in something as soon as it starts. Civil War...haha try dragging the 18-22 year olds away from the video games and pubs to engage in something that takes "Belief" | |

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/13/2006 12:21:02 PM | | North Carolina law (at the time) allowed the practice of carrying weapons during protests for use in self defense. Now knowing that there are a bunch of white hooded hooligans, teamed with some goose stepping buzz heads, all of which could be legally armed, would be more than enough information for me to decide to avoid that particular section of town that day. It was a legally permitted assembly, and although some may interpret the video one way or the other, the courts ruled that there was no criminal action by acquittal of the defendants on all charges, and the civil aspect was settled for $300,000 (didn't say who paid whom), but most likely it was the KKK who paid the Maoist Communist Workers Party. | |

With the crazy sh*t I say over the phone all the time anyway, they have to be taking note (they being the NSA), yet they never called me before.
You the know NSA must HATE the movie team America, and people like me for saying "Durka durka durka mohamed jihad, Allah la la la!!! mohamed jihad!!" LOL
Of course I havn't said that in a while.....Yes ladies, I'm mature now.......

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/13/2006 11:45:36 PM | No civil war will ever be the result of the poor rising up against the rich, not in this country. This is a Canadian Government Travel Advisory regarding travel to the United States:
http://www.voyage.gc.ca/dest/ctry/reportpage-en.asp
3. SAFETY AND SECURITY
Criminal occurrences are frequent in many US cities, but are generally concentrated in areas that travellers are unlikely to visit. Travellers, however, should remain vigilant and alert to their surroundings. Full cooperation is recommended when stopped by police. Street crime can spill over into commercial, hotel, and entertainment areas. Racial tensions and poverty occasionally prompt riots; these are usually confined to the poorer districts of major cities, but the violence can spread to central commercial and hotel districts.
No civil war? Let me ask, do you guys read the news? Are you that censored that you aren't aware of whats happening in your own cities? | |

Another american civil war is quite possible. 1) You have republician representatives out right calling or blatantly refering to the demacrates as traitors.
2) Republician congress members openly considered changing the regulation for appointing supreme court judges that they would have shared their point of view.
3) The congress actually wanted to pass a law that would give the U.S. legal system the right to arbitrarily inflict american law on another country - netherland antilles.
4) When an entertainer supports a liberal point of view, they are ridiculed and told by right wing pundits, conveying the idea that these liberals should be put in their place. While right wing celeberities are concidered to be with in their rights talking about political matters.
5) Then you have folks like Bill Oreiley and Lou Dobbs. Who use their programs to promote a single polarizing view of american national affairs. For example Mr. Dobbs's daily rants about the migrant worker problem in the U.S. . Calling it how he sees it the most single most concern for the american economy. With continuoustalk like this and the divisions that it can cause would make Joseph Goebbles the minister of propaganda proud.
So will there be another civil war for America? It would seem it is only matter of time. There is a line from a UB40 song that fits here - " When your left on the heap there is nothing to keep you from blowing it up on yourself". | |

No there will not be a civil war. The government has all the guns and will kill anyone that protests. Furthermore, nowadays most men are wimps and would not fight. | |

| Another American Civil War, is that likely? Posted: 9/15/2006 5:52:15 PM | He's not America. YOU're not America. All you are is YOU and the nation is torn right down the middle. You know it and I know it. This quote is from anticon in the "Ok...Why does everyone hate America?" thread.
He says I don't represent America; yet he acknowledges we are "torn down the middle". Do you see what he's really saying? He's saying that the left half is America and the right half or the 52% of us who voted for Bush arn't American at all, regardless of our citizenship. Go read the thread and see how angry he gets about my flag picture. He's proving I just might be right about another civil war. | |
