I’ve seen alot of calls for violence in America. Whether it be directed at the president or Federal officers, many people are advocating for an escalation in response to the current situation.
And believe me, I do understand. what I see happening in America is horrifying. But all I am imploring is to really think about what your asking for. Because you can’t put the genie in the bottle once you’ve left it out.
If you’re really gung-ho about it, go and ask a Veteran of Iraq or Afghanistan about it and see what they think. If anyone will know about it they will.
I am going to link a YouTube Playlist. Its the Associated Press Archives of the Bosnian-Serbian war. Because THAT is what will happen if wide scale violence breaks out. Except what will happen in America will be a hundred times worse.
The Bosnian war was pretty much broken up along ethnic lines. “Well it’s going to be Conservative VS. Liberal” you say. Except it won’t be. It will be anyone having a grudge against someone going after them.
ALOT of personal animosity will be taken out in the first few weeks I feel.
And I think the Seige of Sarajavo will be writ large in American cities across the country. Imagine having to dodge sniper fire on your way to get to your job at Wendy’s.
Because that’s the other thing no one is thinking about. You are still going to have to make a living while this is all going to be happening. And the cost of everything will skyrocket. Shipping will probably have to be escorted from place to place because people will be stealing or even blockading locations because they’re “damn dirty libs” or “Fascist Conservatives” Fresh produce will become a thing of the past.
Canada and Mexico will close their borders due to all the refugee’s trying to cross. so if you thinking of doing it, do it the moment everything pops off because otherwise you won’t get in.
Basically Civil war is going to the worst thing to happen in America in a long time. and the only good that comes out of it will be Americans will finally have first hand experience of real war torn violence. And maybe that will hopefully last for another two hundred years or so.
If America even survives the outcome that is.
“Americans will finally have first hand experience of real war torn violence”
Someone missed the War on Drugs which is just another genocide. Also millions of Americans live under the threat of gun death everyday. Have you ever ducked when you hear a gun shot? This is the reality for many urban citizens.
We lose the equivalent of a ongoing war 40-60k gun deaths every year and have so for the last several decades to gun death.
“Over 1.5 million gun deaths occurred in the U.S. between 1968 and 2017, exceeding combined American military deaths in all wars (Revolutionary, Civil, World Wars, Korea, Vietnam, etc.).”
Our government is the most evil collaboration of wealthy people the world has ever scene. They have their hands in everything and control the majority of the world.
We have always been at war with ourselves. I have lost multiple people in my life to gun violence. I know many people’s lives ruined by the war on drugs. We have destroyed tens of millions of families and show no interest in slowing down.
We lock up a disproportional amount of people in the US accounting for 20% of the world’s prison population but only 4% of the world’s population.
We were cooked frogs a long time ago.
