About 40% of registered Democrats are gun owners, so guns come to mind.
Bolt action deer rifles and two boxes of Remington Core Lokts aren't very good for waging war, especially against someone that has assault rifles with copious amounts of ammo.

I agree. There will be no war, just assholes burning a car here and there.

They're not going to revolt, they're going to thump their chests and strut. Beaver Creek showed that nicely. Tim McVeigh was of the same thought process. His little plan didn't work out as he'd liked.

The hicks wanted to lynch the last one not the current one.

If this is your recognition of what is going on in America then what do you feel should be done to prepare for it? Or do you think these rising tensions will blow over and there is nothing ever to be worried about or to prepare for?
Considering that one side is against gun ownership, it wouldn't last very long, so don't worry about it.

I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
