At what point do we categorise America as being in a civil war?
When you can actually defend yourself against the police.
If it hits the fan like that the police become an even worse roving gang than they already are. For any well armed and practiced leftist they should be target #1. They have weapons, ammunition, vehicles and fuel in store but are terrible at using any of them. Relatively easy pickings really and just dangerous enough that they really have to be eliminated quickly before they get a real taste of autonomy.
You scare the shit out of me but I suppose I take comfort knowing you're lurking out there. Have a great day!
I'd be perfectly contented to never use a single bit of the training I've done. I don't want to live the beginning of Mad Max, I'm just not going quietly if I have to. The day wasn't bad. Hope yours was at least as agreeable.
It's a class war. Always has been.
1,200 people is nothing compared to what would happen during a civil war. It is multiple orders of magnitude shy of what even a few months of civil war would cause.
As an example, all US cities are within 48 hours of being in starvation all the time. 24-48 hours before all store shelves are empty is generally the accepted logistics.
