First, the cheap shot: Guy’s a retired Army officer who chooses to “make his home in Bucharest, Romania”, I question his objectivity.
Next, his assumption that the only people who will start a civil war are “new-right disruptors”. Really? Seems as though it’s Antifa and their ink who are the violent protestors in the current milieu, yet he doesn’t even mention the possibility that a civil war might start with Antifa/BLM factions. Again, I question his objectivity.
Colonel, USAFR (ret)
His retirement pay probably goes a lot farther there than in a roughly equivalent American city. And, there's no extradition treaty...( < /sarc > tag required?)
Most conservatives are too busy working and parenting to get involved in silly political activisms. Think about what would have to happen to mobilize that cohort.
