I said exactly this to my wife tonight. we're prepared to weather the storm and we have a front row seat (DC) for the action and lots of skin in the game. It's about to get very interesting.
In fairness, most if not all of the "spectators" were quite aways from the actual fighting, at least up until the point when the US troops panicked in retreat. They slightly overestimated how difficult of an effort it'd take to put down the rebellion, perhaps how some if not most of us have expected a quick, definitive smack down and have panicked whenever things seem tough... Lincoln could have bagged the whole thing, but nope... real patriots WILL WIN, perhaps only once it has become a fight for freedom of the enslaved as opposed to simply preserving the nation?

Voat rocked!
We do. Being aware and living in the DMV will turn one into a prepper.
That happened a lot. Was recreation.

>“A house divided against itself cannot stand.” I believe this government cannot endure permanently half slave and half free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved–I do not expect the house to fall–but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other.
