    I never said that. There are plenty of stupid people in any crowd. But dismissing it as entirely full of people who would target US citizens is insulting. That would not stand.

  I’ll accept that.

  But it’s all about the crowd and momentum. The crowd gets hyped the crowd is gonna do some shit an individual won’t.

  Democrats and Republicans want to murder each other NOW, they’re not even in the military. Why would GIs be any different?

  In a civil war, all will be armed, the armed forces will split as they did before.
