Saw this and looked for a place to share. Not trying to start anything, but a snowflake, resisting other lemming snowflakes (including the admins/teachers) in the news is well….news.

Having freedom of speech is one thing…being able to freely exercise it is quite another.
I doubt that we’ll ever have a second civil war. Not because it’s not possible…it’s very possible. However, due to our spending habits, and lack of fiscal restraint, I believe that this country is going to go bankrupt in the very near future long before we have a civil war. When we do it’ll effect everyone…rich and poor, left and right, young and old. In fact it will effect the entire world. Quite frankly it’s doubtful we’ll have the energy or the inclination to have a full blown civil war when our money is worthless and people will be more worried about their next meal than being politically correct.
Let’s say (for the sake of argument) we ever do have a civil war, look for the Left to appeal to the UN for assistance and for the UN to send in forces to support our leftist government. I would expect to see Chinese, Russian, Iranian, and North Korean troops being used by the UN to subdue the non-leftist Normal People and non-leftist forces/rebels of this nation. Yes we Normal People are well armed and we should stay that way but that is no guarantee we can maintain our freedom once our enemies are given an excuse to place military forces in this country. And don’t look for any help from Western Europe as they are completely self-serving, and untrustworthy and in any case would not want to upset the Russians. As I said I really don’t think this is something to worry about as we’ll go bankrupt before it can actually happen.
It would depend upon who the rebels are, won’t it? If it is the left, like California, seceding and starting it then the Right would still be official government so would be able to veto anything at the UN. If the other nations still intercede then it goes from a civil war to a world war with all that mess would entail. If it is the right rebelling you might be correct but it will really still come down to how the armed forces break on the issue.
In the 1860s, the Democrats wanted to sue for peace with the Confederacy. in the intervening 100 years their song and dance hasn’t changed.
You are absolutely correct…they called themselves Peace Democrats. Everyone else called them “Copper Heads” after the poisonous snake of the same name. They were never successful at crippling this nations military efforts until a hundred years later during the Vietnam war.
