We need a warning chart/scale for Civil War in America
Edited on Mon Nov-28-05 04:39 PM by ck4829
Many DU'ers are talking about War in America.

Those Freepers, you just know they're going to do something foolish and start a Civil War.

What will be the warning signs? (Besides the 10th Freeper Division marching down the street... and off a cliff)

We are already seeing one sign IMO. There are quite literally "Two Americas".

What else can we look out for?

What will be a sign that everybody should pack their bags and head up north OR grab the closest object and prepare to defend themselves?

3. The freeps don't have enough guts to start anything
All freep types I know are all talk. They do nothing but bitch and moan. They are gutless and I won't worry about them starting any type of civil war. I have backed a few of them down by the mere threat of violence. How are they going to respond if actually threatened? They will run and hide, just like always.

4. Americans are too preoccupied for civil war...
Edited on Mon Nov-28-05 04:46 PM by politicaholic
Crazy zealots shooting it up on both sides would be labeled by the media, the national guard would be sent in, and the whole little skirmish would last about 3 days tops.

What nobody is willing to admit is that they don't really care about anything including the troops, just as long as they keep what they have. Welcome to the Narcissistocracy.

17. Wow! What a great idea!
This could be the left's version of the dreaded "Rapture Index."

(BTW, the current Rapture Index is holding steady at 156 ... http://www.raptureready.com/rap2.html)
