In the Time of a Second Civil War, who would you support?

[Delanshar]

I'm sure the British ambassador would be more than welcome at the White House for tea. Just all ahead, you know.

Considering D.C and new york would be overrun by infighting the safest place would be NORAD atleast there the president could coordinate an assault.

DC and New York are predominantly blue. The areas most at risk of temporarily falling into rebel and terrorist hands are rural areas in the deep south.

[Forsher]

I'll bring the crumpets.

Scones are good, too.

This is the Washington Tea Party, not the Devonshire Tea Party.

[Wisconsin9]

Nation States isn't the place for ridiculous non-sense.

[The Land Fomerly Known as Ligerplace]

I'll take the side of my forefathers.

My wonderfully black forefathers.

You honestly think that there would be infighting over the various ethnic and religious groups in new york?

Then you'd be very wrong.

Imagine mindless mob violence compared to the New York Draft Riots.

Should I bring the steads around so we can ride past peasants after tea, and laugh at their dreadful clothing and lack of finesse?

[Farnhamia]

I'll bring the crumpets.

I say lets make this more interesting

How about Zombies?

or the Rage Virus?

I don't know, this obsession with animated corpses seems unhealthy to me.

[Avenio]

Given how little actual power the Crown has these days I envision the Parliamentarians as being the baddies.

I dunno. Knowing Bonnie Prince Charlie, he'd probably end up declaring war on Germany or making homeopathy the state religion or something. Which would definitely make Parliament the good guys.

Tea without scones? How barbaric.

The Rage infected aren't dead

They're just alive and filled with extreme bloodcurdling rage enough to wipe out the British invaders, Confederacy, and the Union XD.

[Big Jim P]

I would support the right to self-determination, just like the founding fathers did.

I see. Equally unhealthy.

This isn't the 1860s where many New Yorkers were deeply invested in the cotton market (and thus slave trade) and racist. New York City largely supports Obama and he could count on their support in any potential fight against reactionary rednecks.

Tell that to Max Brooks and Romero they wrote the book on the Undead.

This is America. (Apologies.)

You do know the founding fathers basically stacked all power on the side of the elites. I mean, sure, Congress was democratic but you have to admit that the presidency (elected by the elite Electoral College) and the Courts (appointed by the president) are very, very undemocratic.

The founding fathers supported the right for the rich, educated elite to have self-determination. They despised so-called "mobocracy" and would've been horrified at the shadow of giving the common person the right to vote and decide on issues he/she is ignorant about.

Im saying obama wouldn't be president. Im focused on a mad max type war.

An african type civil war if you will

The really long ones that last 30 years.

Interestingly enough, supporting President Obama simply because he is black is just as racist as hating him for the same reason.

[Treko]

Well, I would choose the side that is not invading my land. Since everyone is so keen on the Union invading the southern states once again, I would be defending myself in Texas.

New York City was a bastion of the Democratic Party long before Obama. And furthermore, it wouldn't be supporting him "cause he's black" but because he is the LEGITIMATE president of the United States (elected less than 2 weeks ago!)

NO one should vote on anything they are ignorant about. Either educate yourself before you vote, stfu.

No one's going to invade anyone.

It was also a bastion of Tammany Hall styled corruption and Machine Politics.

Police corruption and some other shit, ofcourse every city has some weird shit.

Probably not.

[VogoLannd]

I'd join whatever side wants to eliminate the conditions in society that engender starvation, homelessness, and the domination of the rich.

Indeed. It's not really an invasion if you already own the land.
