    I guess not. It's the right threatening civil war, even when they cover up their work and try to attribute the words of a dead man to spread fear...

    Yet there's several threads on here saying it's the liberals who want a civil war.

    Yes, they are.

    Now, rather than wade through a 40 minute video, I'll present what Daniel Greenfield writes of this civil ward, in THE CIVIL WAR IS HERE: The left doesn’t want to secede. It wants to rule.

    A civil war has begun.

    This civil war is very different than the last one. There are no cannons or cavalry charges. The left doesn’t want to secede. It wants to rule. Political conflicts become civil wars when one side refuses to accept the existing authority. The left has rejected all forms of authority that it doesn’t control.

    The left has rejected the outcome of the last two presidential elections won by Republicans. It has rejected the judicial authority of the Supreme Court when it decisions don’t accord with its agenda. It rejects the legislative authority of Congress when it is not dominated by the left.

    It rejected the Constitution so long ago that it hardly bears mentioning.

    It was for total unilateral executive authority under Obama. And now it’s for states unilaterally deciding what laws they will follow. (As long as that involves defying immigration laws under Trump, not following them under Obama.) It was for the sacrosanct authority of the Senate when it held the majority. Then it decried the Senate as an outmoded institution when the Republicans took it over.

    It was for Obama defying the orders of Federal judges, no matter how well grounded in existing law, and it is for Federal judges overriding any order by Trump on any grounds whatsoever. It was for Obama penalizing whistleblowers, but now undermining the government from within has become “patriotic”.

    There is no form of legal authority that the left accepts as a permanent institution. It only utilizes forms of authority selectively when it controls them. But when government officials refuse the orders of the duly elected government because their allegiance is to an ideology whose agenda is in conflict with the President and Congress, that’s not activism, protest, politics or civil disobedience; it’s treason.

    ...
    Need go on? He's describing the civil war the left has engaged in.

    Thank you for bring it up, Zero. Too bad you got it ass-backwards.
