People keep saying this and I personally don’t really believe it, I think there could be a couple riots, but not like a full on civil war. What does everyone think?

    Of course it could happen. Do I think it will happen in the next two months as we get through election season? Nah.

    I also don’t think a civil war in modern days would look anything like it did in the 1860s. Aside from the obvious advance in weapons and tactics, there’s no convenient clear line between one half and the other like there was with North/South. It would look more like civil wars do in other countries in the 21st century.

      Modern civil war happens when a domestic terrorist group starts to act agains the government.

      For a full on civil war the army would habe to break apart in factions too, and I don’t thinl that’s probable in the us
