No, they'll just have the National Guard shoo t you.

Great idea, cause an internal riot precisely when tensions for a civil war are at the highest in decades. Surely that wouldn't come to bite the status quo in the ass.

Basically how I feel about it as well. I'd be right up there with you talking about direct action if we didn't have a presidential candidate and millions of armed politically-charged suburbanites all but waiting for the spark to touch off the powder. Shit, every time we have something vaguely left-wing happen, I have to hear my own family talking about how "they all should be rounded up and dealt with".

You're getting downvoted, but have an upvote. There is precedence for this, ie. Kent State massacre. I think that's what you're getting at.
