[John Michael Kane]

One of the reasons why the United States won't easily enter into another Civil War is because the country is so large, that it would be impossible to hold this much territory with military might. The United States government against the 350+ million civilian guns out there? You thought Iraqi insurgent warfare was bad, just wait until you deal with millions of pissed off armed American men with a grudge to settle. Not to mention, whomever pointed out up-thread that liberals are congregated in urban areas just goes to show you that you can starve them easily enough due to their lack of food production. Urban areas will be hellholes, and it will be mostly leftists fighting leftists for table scraps of resources. Country folks have always been more self-reliant.
