Nearly a third of Americans – 30% – say people may have to resort to violence in order to get the country back on track, according to the latest PBS News/NPR/Marist poll.

It’s a sharp rise from 18 months ago, when 19% of Americans said the same.

    If the people of America violently revolt en masse, I reckon it’s a 50-50 call if the military backs the Government or the People.

        In which case the likely outcome would be the establishment of 2 separate counties?

        Like East and West Germany? north and South Korea?

          Blocs, probably. A Canadian Bloc, a Mexican Bloc, Conservative Bloc, and a West Coast bloc, maybe? They would all have leanings and eventually end up becoming their own nations or joining Mexico-Canada…though I expect the conservative bloc to be mostly eaten by the others. Largely because Conservatives are shitty neighbors by default.

          If it comes to a stalemate but I doubt it would, though I’m no expert on war. I was thinking it would just make a longer war. I’ve met plenty of military families and they all have different beliefs just like everyone.
