Hi longnshort; I really don't think that the libs are anywhere near being capable of putting up a side in a civil war. It's not a matter of the fact that they don't have guns, it's that they don't know how to use them. They "loathe the military". Their contribution to defense will be to write nasty letters to the editor and voting multiple times.
