Kurt Schlicter asks the unspeakable question. His column at Townhall begins:
Are We Looking At Another Civil War?
Consider the logic of the left and
it’s no wonder that many people are considering the unspeakable – whether
America will devolve into actual violent conflict. . . . The most important
question related to the long decline of America at the hands of a corrupt,
incompetent, and terminally foolish ruling caste that controls our major
institutions is whether we can pull out of this tailspin without bloodshed.
I sure hope so, but the risk is
real and we need to confront it.
The logic of the left accepts
political violence. . . .
So, while the chance of civil
conflict is low, violence is not only possible but it has been used by the left
as a means of making political change in America in the past. And the evidence
is that the left remains ideologically open to using violence in the future to
achieve its goals.
But what would a civil conflict
look like if, heaven forbid, it ever came to pass again? . . .
And Mr. Schlicter outlines some scenarios. Read the full column here.
