Why wouldn't there be a civil war if Obama was elected?

Republicans own all the guns.

Also some groups of republicans are more individualistic in general.

 

Still, not going to be a civil war either way.  I'd like to see the context on the comment.

Edit: oh that does seem in context.... weird.

 

It's funny he's envoking Obama as an excuse to RAISE taxes.

I try to post a link to the article and pull out the main point, and leave the context.  There are times I do miss it though.  And yes, there is irony here, but it seems like anything with Obama now is trying to be linked politically to raising taxes.  For me, the pressing issue here is the rhetoric that somehow Obama will make a civil war happen, and somehow Mitt Romney wouldn't.  

Well to be fair, it is more likely that a civil war would be started by republicans.

Despite common political stereotypes, Republicans are actually far more anti-establishment, at least on the fringes anyway.

Super liberal fringes, even when decrying government more often then not want to solve the problem by making government more powerful.

Additionally, a civil war would likely require that part of the US army would back up the opposition side.

Which seems far more likely republicans wise then democrats wise.
