    I would love to see our national problems solved peacefully but the same republicans pushing for civil war in Texas are the same people who also have been obstructing Congress from doing the will of the people for the last 15 years. They’re the same people who tried to overthrow the government when Trump lost to Biden.

    Have you been living under a rock, or just idealistic? It might be time to get a bag ready.

      we’re dooming untold generations yet to be born if we don’t take quick decisive action. i’d sacrifice 10 million to save 20 billion.

      If advocating against a civil war makes me idealistic, then so be it.

      Anyone who thinks a civil war is necessary and appropriate is ignorant of the cost of war. They should honestly ask themselves if they would truly back up their words with actions, or do they only hold those feelings behind the safety of a screen.

        If I’m going to get shot at by some AR-toting bigot, or I’m going to get shot at by an AR-toting bigot that I’m returning fire on, I’ll take the second choice 10/10 times. These people have proven that they are willing and able to use violence to accomplish their goals. Waiting calmly for them to do so is a recipe for dying without anything to show for it.
