Armed extremists are showing up to protests and urging a "boogaloo" β code for civil war β online.
Not a good idea. In the original Civil War both sides had the same weapons. I don't think these morons have tanks, airplanes, and nuclear weapons. Short fight.
I donβt think we can use airplanes and nuclear weapons. The former would mean too many innocent casualties, the latter would be plain madness.
We do have the tanks. But do we have enough military to defeat dozens, even hundreds, of mini insurgencies happening hundreds and thousands of miles apart? That would be my concern. A new civil war would play out much differently than in the past.
They think Trump will support them and they will be on the side that has all those weapons.
