    An upcoming conflict may be coming, however if it did I don't think it would get this level, but:



    Kind of a rhetorical because I already knew the answer, but I wouldn't want to spoil the video.

    Aside from all the American lives lost it would not just be between Americans. Its likely that our enemies would invade, terrorist would take advantage of the chaos and America would be no more.

    In fact we might as well accept that America will be no more under this illegitimate President.

    America has survived worse. Repubs need to continue all legal methods to challenge this fraud and illegitimate admin and push very hard in midterms to win house and makes gains in the Senate.

    We have to play by the rules and expose wrong doing.

    We can’t give up on America.

    peace to you

    It is my opinion that if the divisions lay between states, and are kept controlled by state authority, then war can be averted as I don't think any governor would want to war with another state. But that occurs only if the Federal govt. gives more power back to the State, and I don't see that happening.

    This atheistic liberal leftist government is going to force it's way on everyone whether they want it or not. All the while singing the praises of unity and diversity, which is an oxymoronic statement.

    When that occurs, then the conflict will originate between conservatives and liberals. It will at first appear to be between Republicans and Democrats. And you will have races of both on both sides, though the Republican will be mostly white and the Democrats will be largely black, and brown, and a variety of other immigrants. And the Democrats will have some whites mixed in.

    But this will quickly devolve into a race war and not a civil war. As soon as whites start killing blacks and blacks start killing whites, and the rape of each others women, and the death of children, all the politics of conservative and liberal will be forgotten. Your allies will be those of your race. Your enemies, those of other races.

    My opinion.

    They actually address this in the video.
    I do not see it ever going that far. With all the greatly rising chaos I believe the Left would fold quickly once they see the Right means business. The video addresses why it is unlikely our enemies would invade on several fronts and in detail.
    The rules are that we have a constitutional right to own guns for the very reason of an out of control government who might want to take them away so they rule over We the People.
    One would have to buy into that there is great division in this country according to race and I don't buy that. The Left might try to make those claims but it would be the Left's doing and problem, I do not believe the Right would lose their focus on what this battle is about.

    And why not wait for Jesus to judge?

    Is that what you would say if someone busted into your house to rape your wife? How about if they want to take your car? Enslave you to work for the government? How about trying to destroy your country's Constitution, take away your freedom and turn it into Communist' rule with China as the supreme leader? - would you still make the argument about waiting for Jesus to judge?

    Yes one would. And yes I do. People in America not only ignore but perpetuate the lie that all are created equal. That race makes no difference. But instead, race is the most powerful of dividers among man, with only language being next to it. But the U.S. loves to pretend that diversity is our strength. That is a bold face lie. It is our greatest weakness.

    Go to prison. What do you see? You see man when not forced to be 'equal', when not forced to 'integrate' revert to the most natural of boundary. Race.

    And when war starts, it will quickly revert to that. It doesn't matter what high goals republicans or democrats, right or left, may try to maintain. Those are gone.

    The only unifying factor that can unite between races is the Holy Spirit. And our country has done everything it can to remove God, and has done a good job of it. Thus they removed the only thing that could help.

    The 'Rights' focus will be lost as soon as it starts.

    My opinion.

    Sounds like you would like that, or why use that scenario first.

    Our freedom is in Christ.

    Or you could ask the millions of Chinese who have become Christians while under oppression.

    Do I like communism?
    No.

    You want to fight with guns and kill those for whom Christ died?
    You were a "heathen" too at one time, I suppose.

    I can't really tell you if I were physically attacked that I would not strike back.
    You have, without cause, attacked me on this forum and I fought back.

    Were we born again physically?
    No.

    You will probably tell me the following verses have nothing to do with physical warfare:

    For though we walk in the flesh,
    we do not war after the flesh:
    (For the weapons of our warfare
    are not carnal,
    but mighty
    through God
    to the pulling down of strongholds
    2 Corinthians 10:3-4

    That is a pretty ignorant and uncalled for thing to say! That is pretty offensive and you would not talk to me that way unless you were hiding behind a keyboard. Do you not understand the simple argument I made against your question, "And why not wait for Jesus to judge?" in the meaning that sticking your head in the sand that it doesn't solve the problem, it won't go away, and the consequences of inaction?

    Try following the premise and addressing the conclusion to the argument rather than running your mouth with foolish replies like, "or why use that scenario first." which is a childish way to avoid the argument and one of the most ignorant and offensive sounding responses I've heard in a long time and certainly not something I'd expect to hear in person out a sane person's mouth!

    I'd really like to hear you answer the final question like a responsible Christian adult?

    Actually, that is a very blanket statement. Everything is a showdown between God and the devil. That is not the point. Man in America is the point. How does he react? Will there be war or not. How will it play out?

    The race factor will trump the spiritual factor. In other words, you will have those who are white and not Christian, siding with conservatives and Christians because they are white. But you will have black Christians siding with democrats and the liberals because they are black.

    You have a very low view of Trump supporters. Not all are children of the devil, most are merely misled.

    Why are you so obsessed with “racial” themes? Are you affiliated with a white supremacy organization?

    You sound just like a KKK member I used to know.

    Obsessed? Nice buzz word. Typical.

    See post #(5) and (9).

    It’s not a “buzz word,” it’s a regular descriptive word. You’ve been babbling on and on about an upcoming race war.

    What is “typical” about it?

    Yes, exactly. That’s why I am asking.

    Are you part of a white suoremacist organization? If you aren’t, it is very easy to say no, but instead you are attempting to deflect the question.

    This post is out if bounds and even low for you. It seems to be an over emotional post. Maybe you need to get control of yourself. No one needs to be suggesting anyone on this board is racist or part if white supremacy. You owe him and apology.
