Excellent summary of our current state of affairs.
Oh and believe me, the shooting has already started, or should I say, there have been casualties already.
See tag line.
‘Mindless’ is an accurate description of groupies whose wills are in submission to forces of evil. For some of them, hatred of conservatives is mindless because they’ve been told by the masters of their wills to hate. So they hate people that they don’t really know and who may even have served them in some way, i.e. firemen, paramedics, etc. For others, hatred is a function of fear of losing a parasitic, hedonistic lifestyle.

Bump!
Never doubt the intelligence or dismiss the resolve of your enemy. They didn't get to the position they are in controlling most of the District of Collusion by being stupid.
They may be blind to reasonable argument, immune to decency and be soulless haters but they aren't mindless.
No, the Left isn’t stupid, at least not at the leadership levels. You might think them stupid if you assume that they believe their own rhetoric, but they don’t.
They are just used to saying whatever they think will motivate their low level followers, who ARE fairly stupid, particularly the ones on welfare, and the ones who only have a paycheck because of affirmative action or because of their connection to the Democrat power structure.
And the power at the top comes from those stupid people below who will gladly go out and terrorize and unconditionally support those above.
The next civil war (if there is one) has none of those more "civilized" constraints. The enemy (leftists, the godless, globalists, Satanists, sexual perverts, Marxists, fascists) are everyone, in every state, city, and town.
How do you "fight" such an enemy? Not on the battlefield.
Our nation will implode from within.
everyone = everywhere
The two worse mistakes were allowing federal employees to be union (AFGE) plus allowing Congress to use the same union’s health plans plus retire under FERS.

Gore's legal team actually filed briefs with the premise that it was the voters' INTENT that should determine the outcome, rather than simple arithmetical counting of votes. They further argued that voter intent could be ascertained by pre-election polls, exit polls, news stories, and sob stories from people who voted, or said they did.
At the time, I said that the Democrats were appealing against elections and in favor of Rousseau's General Will (determined, of course, by them), and that if they kept losing elections, that we would be at war within twenty years.
And here we are.
The French Revolution had aspects of civil war, as did China’s Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution.
That’s where we are going, IMO.
People always considered a nuclear war impossible. Well, there’s not as much odds of retaliation if a nation is so splintered on the inside.
The writter should have included the attack on the GOP train in VA. We’ll never be told the details of that.
That was the Election of 1860
The totalitarian thugs on the left are not the only ones who don't accept that elections are how you decide who runs the country. Normal Americans, including as far as I know the conservatives on Free Republic, also reject that perspective.
Elections are how you decide who runs the country - subject to the strict constraints of the Constitution, in particular the enumerated powers. Even an election win does not give the socialists legitimate authority to go beyond those limits, to redistribute wealth, or to disarm the people from whom government's just powers are derived.
The Constitution is in charge. If America's enemies on the left respected that fact, it would matter far less who held public office. If the petty tyrants and their enablers continue refusing to accept the rule of law, then another civil war is far better than a return of slavery.
Humans are souls/spirits embedded within bodies (matter). When they submit their wills they’ve submitted their souls to something that resonates with the indecency, hatred, bitterness, etc. that already festers within their souls—the seat of passions. Thus their passions (hatred, etc) become the arbiter of pseudo-’thought.’ In this respect, they are mindless because passions replace reasonable argument which is an ability of spirit (mind).
As a society we have lost the knowledge of who and what we are because materialist scientism, in teaching non-existance of soul/spirit, reduces humans to hominids, bio-machines, and aggregates of energy.
