So we’ve gone up from 4th Amendment violations to the 5th Amendment. Soon it’ll be 6th, and the 13th is a little shaky.

    For this?

    They want a civil war thinking that they can kill half of us and still have a functioning country.

    No. We had one back in 1861, and they thought the same thing then too.

      You really need to read up on the civil war. Having said that since this is also your first time you need to pick a new meme.

        Yeah, you might need to read some of the journals from the soldiers and maybe remember they evolved into the Klansmen now sitting in office. Not saying the articulated, states-rights reasons. I’m talking on the personal level of those who volunteered to fight for the South. Back then, hate for the left (the abolitionists back then) was being peddled to them through things like religion or newspapers (though maybe not as far reaching as like with Twitter) just as it is today, and some joined up to murder the abolitionists.

          I have read more than I ever want to about it. What is happening now is nothing like the first civil war. What is happening now is from germany in WWII. Its in their words and its in their actions.

              They didn’t get concentration camps, poison showers , mass cremation or their final solution from the US civil war. This is pointless you are convinced its the same and its clearly not.

                You’re right. They were limited by their time. But, they’d have gotten there eventually if left to their own devices.

                  They wanted slaves not mass graves. They were prevented from industrializing by the north. They were not interestied in killing them all. As mechanazation came into play they would have just prevented them children. Just like the chinese are doing to the Uyghurs today.

                  A huge amount of northeners didn’t want slavery to end. Just like they didn’t want the factories in the south. Jim Crowe came into exsistence after the war becuse far too many Northeners didn’t want a free and productive south. They had the ability to stop it and choose not to. But at no time were they planning the mass extinction of a race.

                  The assholes today imagine they will enslave all the browns through conquest and no one can stop them. But it is in no way like the american civil war.

                    They wanted slaves not mass graves.

                    They wanted mass graves of their political enemies.

                    They were not interested in killing them all.

                    Right, just their enemies. Like I said:
