The Second American Civil War Thread
 
Portland:

Quote:

A man was shot and killed Saturday as a large group of supporters of President Trump traveled in a caravan through downtown Portland, Ore., which has seen nightly protests for three consecutive months.

The pro-Trump rally drew hundreds of trucks full of supporters into the city. At times, Trump supporters and counterprotesters clashed on the streets, with people shooting paintball guns from the beds of pickup trucks and protesters throwing objects back at them.

A video that purports to be of the shooting, taken from the far side of the street, showed a small group of people in the road outside what appears to be a parking garage. Gunfire erupts, and a man collapses in the street.

The man who was shot and killed was wearing a hat with the insignia of Patriot Prayer, a far-right group based in Portland that has clashed with protesters in the past.
Kenosha:

Quote:

Who is Kyle Rittenhouse?
Mr. Rittenhouse was arrested early Wednesday in his hometown, Antioch, Ill., which is about 30 minutes southwest of the protests in Kenosha, just over the state line.

Multiple posts on his social media accounts proclaim support for pro-police causes like the Blue Lives Matter movement and Humanize the Badge, a nonprofit that he ran a Facebook fund-raiser for on his 16th birthday.

His posts also suggest a strong affinity for guns, with videos showing Mr. Rittenhouse taking backyard target practice, posing with guns and assembling a weapon.

Most likely, if a second civil war happened, it'd start as a skirmish between some militant group and the govt, and then once the govt displays enough weakness to encourage other groups to join in they would do so. Some of them would rightly align with the original group and others wouldn't. So you'd be left with a multi vector bloodbath with shots being fired in multiple directions simultaneously.

This might sound far fetched at first. Till you take a look at any modern civil wars that have broken out. Syria being a prime example.

"I can tell you I have the support of the police, the support of the military, the support of the Bikers for Trump – I have the tough people, but they don’t play it tough — until they go to a certain point, and then it would be very bad, very bad," Trump said.

"Law enforcement, military, construction workers, Bikers for Trump ... They travel all over the country .... They’ve been great," Trump said at the time. "But these are tough people ... But they’re peaceful people, and antifa and all — they’d better hope they stay that way."

The latest remarks were seized upon in some quarters as another example of Trump seeming to offer threats toward his political opponents.

Be honest. In your mind, was Oregon liberated from the British through the Revolutionary War?
