    Looks like a tinderbox that could ignite at any moment. The dudes are emboldened by Trump, plus I'm sure Putin is somehow fanning the flames of discontent and would love nothing more than another civil war.

    Seriously, these guys showed up at the rally.

    • Don't be so dramatic. This was nothing more than assholes being assholes. There's nothing to war over.monospaced
    • lol i wonder how long it took these clowns to get ready for this charadeMilan
    • They have cute throat mic's and everything! Wee boys playing at soldiers.face_melter
    • The conditions are ripe, wars have started over a lot less, the Balkan wars were ignited over a soccer match._niko
    • sorry @niko the balkan wars started bcs america meddled with internal affairs in yugoslavia. the soccer match was just one of the incidents.renderedred
    • i was still in yugoslavia when "centers for democracy" mushroomed in all the big cities during the late 80s.renderedred
    • there are no ripe conditions ... nothing to fight over evenmonospaced
    • Really? I see two groups that are diametrically opposed, they can't stand each other, now they're turning to violence and murder...doesn't take much._niko
    • And of course it's not one incident, it's a series of inter related occurrences, but the final trigger could be a soccer match, an assassination or a_niko
    • A hundered other trivial reasons that have sparked past wars._niko
    • nah, there's nothing like thatmonospaced
    • _niko might be right. Fanatic civilians walking around with AR-15s is calling for terror. And it's not only them that are armed in the US.Beeswax
    • + What I've just learned that they infiltrated into Nat. Guards for a while. Now with Trump they occupy more positions in armed and gov forces.Beeswax
    • The majority of people are sane and calm in the US, but that's how it was in Yugoslavia too. You just need the crazy %10 to turn a country upside down.Beeswax
    • There's nothing to fight over. It's not like there's an issue like slavery. It's just a bunch of extremes who make up a vast minority of the nationmonospaced
    • In this case a couple hundred assholes demonstrated about a stupid statue. That's not ripe fruit for a civil war. Thank god.monospaced
    • Even slavery wasn't the real issue, it always comes down to power and self determination. Mono I hope you're right but I see this getting worse before it gets b_niko
    • There's not even a disagreement! This is white power fuckasses not a divided country.monospaced
    • While this is wrong, I didn't see the outrage for black lives matter embolden by Obama or the fascists in Berkely. Fascist hypocrites.Hayoth
    • still don't understand what actual fascism is, I see, but still trying to use itmonospaced
    • Could be a couple of hundred assholes, but the German national socialist party was a handfull of angry men when it started. The Cuban revolution was like 12_niko
    • Disorganized people and an old boat. The communist party was started by two drunk Germans in a cafe. Things tend to snowball, people jump on bandwagons_niko
    • We shouldn't be so dismissive especially since they've been emboldened by trump and since the Russians are in there stirring the pot_niko
    • Emboldened to do what? Reminisce when blacks were slaves and women couldn't vote? Please. There's no regime to overthrow here.monospaced
    • These jerks are just ignorant religious extremists with a confused view and weak self definition. It's not a real movement.monospaced
    • They are working stiffs and that isn't changing.monospaced
