Second Civil War Turning Violent?

[Mac1958]

Just for the record, it is possible to have interesting conversations here if you're patient. But yeah, for the most part, this place is controlled by people who wouldn't behave like this in public. Hopefully. My guess is that it's largely used for some kind of catharsis. Better here than in real life, I guess.

Yes, Mac, it would be horrible for you if people challenged you like this in public...

^^^ And one of the primary examples pipes in, thanks.

For pointing out that you are pompous and full of yourself.

Hey, instead of telling us how brilliant you are, how about saying something brilliant.

I feel sorry for you, Joe.

I feel sorry for you, Joe.

I laugh at you, Mac. So much self-importance to deflate.

Instead of you saying you have a point how about making one?

Joe, most of your posts are replete with insults, name-calling, and the personal, specific belittling of others.

You clearly think you are superior to others, and it's reflected, in a consistently aggressive and nasty way, in almost every post you make.

For you to not realize that you probably suffer from more self-importance than anyone here is fascinating, but sad.

While you are indeed an interesting study, your blind hatred and anger are ugly, and have no negative impact on me at all.

NO, they aren't. But if I discuss an issue in depth, you usually pretend you didn't see it.

You clearly think you are superior to others, and it's reflected, in a consistently aggressive and nasty way, in almost every post you make.

Did I hurt your wittle feelings? I'm sorry. I know you get here and whine about people you disagree with all day, but get upset when they challenge your pomposity.

While you are indeed an interesting study, your blind hatred and anger are ugly, and have no negative impact on me at all.

Which is why you spend so much time whining about me, either directly or indirectly.

Quit humping my leg and we'll never communicate.

But that's good, because you're much smarter and better than me. And I'll bet you smell better, too. And are better looking.

There. Abject capitulation.

I hope you feel a little better now.

Naw, man, it isn't about me.

It's about exposing you for the phony you are.

The kind of person who claims to be a "Traditional Liberal", but he's more upset that Ann Coulter can't spew racist bile than he is that Trumpenfuhrer is about to yank health care for 24 million working folks.

As long as your priorities are soooo fucked up, I'll call you on it.

Yes, Joe, I'm a phony and yours is the superior intellect.

(The second Star Trek movie is my favorite, if you got that reference)

So I will now and in the future bow to your superiority.

Guy, it's your stupid ideas that I am mocking. Your ego is just collateral damage.

Yes Joe, you're right.

Your ideas are superior because you are superior, stipulated.

You worry more about Ann The Man Coulter than the millions of people who are going to lose health coverage.

I do? Wow, thanks for telling me!

Your superior intelligence shines again. Thank you.

As long as there are humans they will fight. Imgine of everyone decided to think only one way...only liberal or only conservative. This country could not survive. What prager epically fails to see is that division is healthy and the diversity of opinions strengthens a nation. Too much nationalism is also a threat to a nation's survival.

By Dennis Prager -

In a recent column, I made the case that Americans are fighting the Second Civil War. The deep chasm that has opened up between the left -- not liberals, the left -- and the rest of the country is so wide and so unbridgeable that there is no other way to describe what is happening. But I noted that at least thus far, unlike the First Civil War, this war is not violent.

Unfortunately, there is now reason to believe that violence is coming. In fact, it's already here. But as of now, it's only coming from one direction.

Left-wing thugs engage in violence and threats of violence with utter impunity. They shut down speakers at colleges; block highways, bridges and airport terminals; take over college buildings and offices; occupy state capitals; and terrorize individuals at their homes.

In order to understand why more violence may be coming, it is essential to understand that left-wing mobs are almost never stopped, arrested or punished. Colleges do nothing to stop them, and civil authorities do nothing to stop them on campuses or anywhere else. Police are reduced to spectators as they watch left-wing gangs loot stores, smash business and car windows, and even take over state capitals (as in Madison, Wisconsin).

It's beginning to dawn on many Americans that mayors, police chiefs and college presidents have no interest in stopping this violence. Left-wing officials sympathize with the lawbreakers, and the police, who rarely sympathize with thugs of any ideology, are ordered to do nothing by emasculated police chiefs.

Consequently, given the abdication by all these authorities of their role to protect the public, some members of the public will inevitably decide that they will protect themselves and others.

This ability of the left to get away with violence is one of the gravest threats to American society in its modern history. Since the Civil War, I can think of only two comparable eruptions of mob violence that authorities allowed. One was when white mobs lynched blacks. The other was the rioting by blacks, such as the Los Angeles riots 25 years ago, and the recent riots in Ferguson, Missouri, and Baltimore, Maryland.

Today, authorities in what we once proudly proclaimed the "Land of the Free and Home of the Brave" are intimidated to the point of paralysis.

And exactly what do they fear? Not violence -- they have made peace with left-wing violence. What they fear is the left-wing media. If the Black Lives Matter movement is forcefully prevented from blocking tens of thousands of cars from entering or leaving San Francisco, the police and local authorities will be labeled racist by black leaders, a smear that will then be echoed by The New York Times and rest of the left-wing media.

Likewise, if a college president requests enough police to come to a college campus so that a Heather Mac Donald, a Charles Murray or an Ann Coulter can deliver a lecture, some of the student-gangsters engaged in violence might be injured -- and that college president will then be pilloried by the mainstream media.

There will be no second civil war

Americans are too fat and lazy

Well, you know, rather than taking the beating I give you every day, maybe you should hire a dominatrix...

Well the Civil War saved the nation but at a high cost. I think we'd have been better off dividing. Technology was soon capable of solving the problem.

Yes, you're right.

You have so humiliated me so many times that it's difficult for me to function sometimes.

But when I am weak, I just think to myself "WWJD" (What Would Joe Do?), and the knowledge of your superiority provides needed comfort.
