I'd probably move or fart on all the people trying to invade our land. Or I might trick some of them into coming over for dinner and then turn the kitchen into a gas chamber.

Yeah it depends if one supported the government or the rebels.

Your snowman is so cute.

If a Civil War happened in our country, then I'd bake cookies and sell them to the soldiers for a profit.

I would, in principle, be for it. However, the fact that the United States owns thousands of nuclear weapons could complicate the matter. The "red line" would be a 20 kiloton nuke dropped on a mid sized town of 50 or 100,000 people that supported the rebels. tens of thousands would be dead and hundreds of thousands would be injured and if rebels got ahold of nukes, this could eventually escalate into the world's first nuclear war.

Nuclear weapons could persuade me otherwise too.

If there was a civil war in my country, the free market would fix it.

There's no "free market" when armed, uniformed men (or women) from the other side have  guns to your head, taking everything that's not bolted to the floor in your house and maybe having their way with your partner or even you.

There would be a demand for more weapons and therefore better armed citizens. We could do it. The free market would fix it.

Due to the 2nd amendment, we the people would be able to take care of it with little intervention.
