Are We Headed for a Second "Civil War"?

Many continue to repeat this obvious fallacy: given the cultural and political polarity existing in the country today as well as the growing aggressiveness of the Left, a "second civil war" may well occur.

Folks, there wasn't a first "civil war", so how could there be a second? 

The purposely misnamed "American Civil War" (1861-1865) was not--NOT-- a civil war at all. It was a war of secession. For it to have been a bona fide "civil war" both sides would have been vying for complete political control of the country. Historically, that's what civil wars have always been about. Unlike the North which sought political control over the country, both north and south, the Confederate States of America did not seek political dominance. Opting to peacefully withdraw the union, it sought complete INDEPENDENCE only, which mirrors the secessionist aspirations of the American colonies in 1775 when they opted to secede from England in order to establish their own nation. 

That said, what do you suppose the Demonrats want today? Total political and cultural control over the country. And if they resort to violence and/or arms to achieve that end, and if patriots resist them in kind, then, yes, America will experience it's first civil war.
