From a left wing perspective it's time to quit bitching about gun control and get ready for Civil War 2.0.

how would a civil war along these lines be even supposed to work? you won't get more than anarchy but no proper civil war

I can't predict the future but my guess is something along the lines of Northern Ireland from 1969 to 2007 aka Operation Banner as the British Army called it aka " The Troubles".

that will be a short thing, then

it's not actually the reason you'll get your civil war 2.0 for but it shows what i think would happen

Hard to say because we know many enlisted personnel like Trump. The Taliban didn't have a lot of bells and whistles but they defeated the UD and it's allies. The IRA also was much weaker then the British Army but they ended the war in a negociated settlement and some of their leaders were elected to the British Parliament.

With a defunded and demoralized police and District Attronies not prosecuting criminals the ordinary citizen must protect himself rest my case.

you're playing that broken record since i know you and iirc you also don't want a proper police force (trained and paid for)

Yes, but WE in Afghanistan and the Brits in Northern Ireland were outsiders and the locals knew one day we go home... but You seems to forget neither the Left or the Right are going anywhere. We both consider America our home... I do want to point out demographic are against this. The majority of Republicans are over 50 years of age... They do not fight wars...

Actually Northern Ireland is part of the UK and has been for hundreds of years. The majority of the people in Ulster we're pro British and many fought against the IRA. The vast ⁵ of the RUC was born in Ulster and much of the British Army in Ulster was composed of the Ulster Defense Regiment which was made up of men and women born in Ulster.

But Northern Ireland maybe part of Britain but the local Catholics never did think they were... The local Unionist feel like outsiders too, especially if they become part of a united Ireland...
