Without a doubt this is the most dangerous moment in the US since the Cuban Missle crisis and more realistically going back to the start of the Civil War.  What happens next is anyone's guess.

Ironically 2A may end up being used in a serious attempt to install a dictator rather then take one out.

I'm not sure yet what I think will happen.  The one thing I keep coming back to is that all the intel leading up to Jan 6 pointed to the possibility of real violence.  It wasn't just bluster.  We saw plenty of posts in here over the last month pointing toward the possibility and none of us were really following the actual places where that chatter was taking place (well, maybe Kz! and of course posters that are no longer posting).  So why would we not believe in the threats regarding the next couple of weeks that are currently in the chatter?

WAR!!!!!!

Nah, they blew their load last time. 

I don’t think the majority of the idiots pumping their chest up on social media about election fraud and taking the country back have the gonads to follow through.

Some do... and are crazy enough to think they are still patriots. There will be sproradic fighting because of this group.

As sad as it is to say, the more shooting and intervention by the national guard/military the better, IMHO. Unfortunately this misbelief that the election was stolen and Democrats are going to burn the country down is not going away after Inauguration Day. Obviously 5 people dying and the capitol being overrun was not enough for republicans pushing propaganda to grow a spine and stop lying to their supporters.

The real question is how many people have to die before they do?

They need to throw serious charges against those already arrested.  Give potential protesters something to think about.

I believe there will be violence and an attempt on Biden/Harris' lives.

I do not think violence will be widespread. These pathetic losers have not shot their wad. They are still calling for violence. They call the election we just had a coup. I wish I was joking, but I have it from rabid, right-wing family members that a coup happened and it elected Biden.

It is going to get, very, very ugly, but as we saw on the 6th, the insurgents are idiot, entitled wimps. They have weapons and zip-ties, but steal meaningless trophies,  kill police and piss in offices.

This will be a shitshow of legendary proportions, but the cockroaches will scurry away once the lights come on and a prepared response of armed and armored people is waiting.

I think in the days leading up we will see more arrests, social media already cracking down, but there will be a few that show up.  They will be dealt with swiftly and after nut job gets impeached things will quiet down.  
 

So I’m somewhere between pure bravado  to sporadic violence.  

I think there will be widespread violence. More will die. Biden and Harris are in imminent danger. That said I think the secret service and the national guard will do their jobs, keep our new president and Vice President safe, and quell the violence. 

I think that by and large things will go on much as they have. There will be a few idiots causing trouble, but the vast majority of Americans will get on with their lives. No war. No constant attacks costing hundreds of thousands of lives per year. Nothing over the top. That's my expectation as we transition to the new administration.

Your poll options are wack, but I voted for bravado. There will be more protests that will probably get violent, but I don't know that many will die. Many another handful or two at most? This whole notion that neighbors across the country are going to be pitted against each other in prolonged violent confrontation is beyond ridiculous.

So what should the poll options be?

Bravado option implies no violence, then the next one says "many will die" after weeks of protests. Quite the leap.

So you suggest one in between those two?

I guess, I don't know. The other two are pure fantasies. But I know, I know, "lock n load" right?

Yeah I think it will be either a few people, or if people get really stupid and try to shoot it out with the secret service or national guard, dozens. Before anyone even entertains the thought, "Trumpbots couldn’t be that stupid”, yes, yes they can.

We will also see lots more of this kind of thing

About 100 Trump supporters and 100 counterprotesters, some of whom described themselves as anti-fascists, stood off with San Diego police for hours in the heart of Pacific Beach Saturday, with officers trying to keep the opposing groups apart following skirmishes

 

We should set up steel cage death mat hes for those. Royal rumble

Someone should tell the QAnon/Trumpbots that antifa is planning on meeting in X (maybe some place in the middle of nowhere in Kansas or the Dakotas).  Then tell antifa that QAnon/Trumpbots are planning on meeting in X.  Then we can have the fight to the death between the two groups that has been suggested.  Hopefully there's only one person left, and then there's only one person to charge with crimes after the death match is over.

Are people really still scared of Antifa after Wednesday?

Aliens say enough of this crap and finally push the button
