True. Just ask the taxpayers working on the IRS plantation to support the democratic plantation that runs it. Taxes not slavery? Try running away and not paying. Motherfrickers will make you say "TOBY!!!!!!!".

Easy to say when you live in AK
Honestly, I wouldn't be against it.

"What would help this economy is a good war. Now it doesn't have to be a big one. We could hit Mexico again. We can do it in the afternoon when they're all asleep under those big hats."

I think it's inevitable.

After seeing what went down in Chicago, I'd say it's probably going to happen someday. Not sure when, all it needs is a good catalyst, like the economy taking a massive dump. Then all bets are off.
Let's face it. Half of this country doesn't like the other half and would love to give it to them good and hard.
Some people just need to be careful what they wish for.

the only way I see that happening is if there is a major conservative movement and all welfare systems are either shut down or tightened. Which will never happen unless government fails.
Blacks would be unable to function. Half of the country (who aren't around them but are self rituous enough to tell others to support them) would feel sorry for them and the other half would be glad that they don't have to support them.
But the majority of the black population is in the south and northeast. They don't have the capability to move so it would be the whites that pull have to move. I don't see either happening.
I see a split over a real issue like religious freedoms. When Muslims move on the us like they are in Europe that will be an issue that women, blacks, Mexicans, and whites will unite around. Muslims when in the majority will impose their laws that eliminate Christian practice, the rights of women, and freedom. That will be what will cause a civil war.

Do you not realize that more white people are on government assistance than black people? Those of you negating this hypothetical to a mere black v white thing are nothing short of being cognitively impaired.

It won't be a gun type war or a race war...it will be an economic class war.
The amount of wealth transferred from 98 percent of the population to the top 2 percent over the last 25 years is staggering.

If a Democrat gets elected there will be.

7 of every 100 for one race, 1 out of every 4 for another. The numbers are actually even more skewed than that when you take away food stamps issued for natural disaster relief. A better indicator is long-term welfare which is 38.8% Caucasian and 39.8% AA.
ETA: I do agree that this war will have little to do about race and more to do with state's rights and entitlement. My retort was simply meant as a delve deeper into the numbers.
