      I always did find it amusing that they are called the United States when it seems like it’s constantly teetering on brink of another civil war.

        teetering on brink of another civil war

        Shit has to get much, much, much worse before people are willing to take up arms against their own family member 'en mass. A civil war isn’t one in which you fight a far away enemy, a civil war is one in which many of your family members and friends are on the opposite side. We are nowhere near a civil war, not even close.
