Speaking as one who has been close to the instrumentation of war and had minor combat skirmishes (call it "combat lite" if you like), I fully understand what a hot civil war could be like, and it ain't pretty. I never got up close and personal in my encounters, they were always stand-off affairs with long-range rifles (M-14s) and a fairly weak and disorganized foe. But you can still get killed or seriously injured in the lowest intensity of conflicts. At my age now, I certainly would NOT look forward to it again, but if it's forced on me by the left or the DS, I'll reluctantly (but very forcefully) take up arms again.
