Left wingers demonizing our Constitution, the natural rights of man, and patriots that defend those, are the only ones pushing for civil war.
Conservatives want others to live by the rules that exist, respect the natural rights upon which this nation is based, and stop being aggressive towards others.
If you all can't do that, then absolutely there's gonna be trouble.
CIvil war? That would require the other side to take arms, which most of them have no clue doing. They wouldn’t even know which end of the barrel to point
The American right controls all three branches of the federal government and a staggering majority of state governments, yet they are the ones always talking Civil War. Civil wars are usually fight for freedom, independence or power. Why would the group that holds all the power want a civil war? Do they literally just want to kill their political opponents?
First, the one thing many of you armchair experts seem to ignore is that the "right-wingers" do not control the Senate. A majority of one is not control. Unlike the Dems who do the duck step in lockstep, Republicans actually have groups with differing ideas, so they don't agree 100% of the time. THAT is a righteous thing. Dems should try thinking for themselves instead of being told what to think and doing it 100% of the time. You might as well BAH like sheep.
Two, the House, Senate and White House do not make up the three branches of government. Didn't you ever take a civics or gov class? Hint: Legislative, Judicial, Executive.
Third, please do some research and find out what happened the last time a government tried to disarm and overtax Americans. Hint: It wasn't the civil war.
They literally want to preserve their rights endowed upon them by natural law. You might want to investigate that one while you're catching up.

The other side (why the hell do people say "the other side" when talking about Americans?) went on a gun buying frenzy when Trump was elected. They literally believed that conservatives would be "coming to get them"... which is ironic since it was they who took to the streets rioting and burning. Hypocrisy runs deep.
There should be no need to fire a shot (I hope). The left (progressives, Marxists (socialists & communists)) populate the cities. The conservatives and moderates populate rural and sub-urban areas. Who feeds the cities?

Civil Wars usually start when one side thinks their rights are being infringed upon. And what is happening is just that. We're seeing Constitutional rights like the 2nd Amendment being challenged. Crimes are committed VASTLY by the left, using illegal guns. Yet mainstream media are trying to disarm law abiding gun owner??? All the while we're seeing states like CA allowing "sanctuary status" to ILLEGAL aliens. They're taking away the RIGHTS of tax-paying legal citizens while granting rights to illegals. That's why the right is aggravated, and rightfully so!

Oh dear... we have an "expert."
Legislative - Republicans have the house by a safe margin & the senate by a marginal one
Executive - they have the whitehouse
Judicial - 5 to 4 majority
If the right to bear arms is "endowed upon them by natural law" (where do you find this pseudo-Shakespearean nonsense?) then why is it this is the ONLY country in the western world that has this right, and the only one with a mass shooting problem... Whatever, don't let my logical questioning get in the way of your eloquence.

No, they don’t want to kill off their political opponents.

Executive - they have the whitehouse
Judicial - 5 to 4 majority
Oh dear, I guess you missed that the OP is the one who said the Senate, House and President are the three branches. Stop jumping to a conclusions before grasping the gist if the conversation.

Why are we the only country that has lasted 250 years? Why does every other country run to us when they need bailing out?
It's hard to believe we are still in the top 30 of educated countries.

Wait, let me venture into the abscess that is your mind and figure out what you mean by this..let me guess, the "left" are those black people?
I don't know a single person on the right calling for civil war. I haven't even read anyone saying that anonymously online. Undoubtedly there are a handful of extremist kooks who probably do talk about this idea, but the implication you threw out here, that the right is routinely calling for civil war is a complete red herring.
Wow, you must not have been on C-D long....or you'd know dozens of right wingers starting threads and agreeing they wish for Civil War....or would win it...or other crazy stuff.
Start reading, my friend....
