‘America has passed the point at which the triumph of one party or another can fix what’s wrong with it’
Canadian novelist and essayist and author of The Next Civil War: Dispatches from the American Future (Simon & Schuster)

The United States is a textbook example of a country headed towards civil war. The trends increasingly point one way, and while nobody knows the future, little – if anything – is being done, by anyone, to try to prevent the collapse of the republic. Belief in democracy is ebbing. The legitimacy of institutions is declining. America increasingly is entering a state where its citizens don’t want to belong to the same country. These are conditions ripe for political violence.

Perhaps shutting your piehole would be of help.

well of course he's trying to sell his book, what do you expect him to say ?
 
The right hates government.

The military belongs to the government.

The right's millions of civilian firearms may as well be sharp popsicle sticks.

Waco was just a dress rehearsal of what is to come.
