CWII PING!

The CWII Ping List is short for Civil War II. It is NOT a list of people advocating another Civil War in America. It is a list of people who are interested in the parallels between the Civil War (or War Between the States, if you prefer) and our current situation, or more generally are noting the references to a 'coming Civil War' that are made in the press.

Of course sometimes this is merely a figure of speech, such as "The Tea Parties are fighting a civil war for the heart of the GOP". This would not merit a CWII ping.

On the other hand someone saying something like "The events in California are reminiscent of what happened in Yugoslavia in the period proceeding the Civil War" would merit a ping.

FR rules do not permit advocating for the overthrow of the Republic, and I am not aware of anyone doing so on the list. Still many do see that as the political climate worsens we may be heading in a direction that makes such a conflict all but inevitable, particularly if other avenues for resolving our differences are taken away. Such as widespread vote fraud by leftists making elections meaningless, or a small cadre of judges over-ruling all attempts to end destructive policies over the clear will of the people.

The correct keyword tag for the Civil War II ping list is "CWII".
Please Freep Mail me to get on the list

With the pending economic doom, two distinct possiblities are (1) government seizure of personal property, and (2) Suspension of 2012 election in the name of national security.

Thus CW...Part 2

I now this sounds extreme, but the economic news of the past few weeks shows indications of a perfect storm of doomsday that we all fear. (1) Foreign divergence treasuries (2) Possible devaluation of several currencies (3) Near across the board decrease in credit ratings of soverign debt, (4) economic sinking after even historical captial infusion. Hang on folks, the ride is getting ready to get rough.
