Larry Corriea explains this by using a light switch as a metaphor for describing how the right views violence, and why they are so reluctant to "flip the switch."
It permanently destroys who that person is from before the light switch is thrown. There is no going back from it, and flipping that switch is a one way descent into violence the likes this country hasn't seen in over 100 years. It will be up close, brutish, nasty, and no one is prepared for it, as much as they think they are. It will be entire families brutally murdered in their homes, snipers shooting people in the head over, and over again.
It will be Yugoslavia times Rwanda times a thousand.
And here is the scary part: I firmly believe the left thinks we won't do it. They aren't wrong to think that, because we haven't yet, and the right has tolerated orders of magnitude more infringements than the revolutionaries in Colonial America did, and we haven't figuratively stood our ground and had it out at our modern day Concord, MA.
Those same revolutionaries would have started shooting nearly 100 years ago, if not earlier, because of what FDR was doing.
I agree. This type of violence the US has been spared from for its existence. Even our civil war wasn’t really a normal civil war, instead it was a war between two powerful nations. A real civil war/unrest period has soldiers going door to door, executing some people for a single reason. It has mass civilian killings and terrorism, it’s overall a horrific experience that I don’t think anyone wants, except for a few psychos.

Americans were already very civilized at the time of the Civil War.
From wapo a couple of links in:
Le 13%, duh, maybe 12 now.
30% of people are hispanic.
Out gay men are 2% of the population. I have no idea about lesbians.
That was all off the top of my head. IDK how I did.
