Would it split 50/50?In case of a civil war, what side will the US military take?
Civil war doesn't mean racism there Lassie,it means left verses right.I don't think it will involve slavery just murder in the hundreds of thousands to no avail.Containment for prisoners and swift executions on both sides.The thought of a Civil war in the US is horrifying to say the least. There will be a whole bunch of politicians hanging from light post and in the center of town. As for the Military they will take the side that has their respective views.What a great movie this would make .Just think all the couch potatoes could watch their cushy surroundings being destroyed in real time. They love reality shows ,yet they would find reality bites when its real!In case of a civil war, what side will the US military take?
They would side with the government. Their leadership is the elected citizenry, not Hank that sits outside of the laundromat talking **** about rebellions. It is a professional army that instills hierarchy and the top of that hierarchy is the elected citizen who is established as the commander-in-chief.
Of course, we are not immune to a civil war but even in the only civil war in our history the militaries of both sides took orders from a elected official who was a citizen. I don't see a leader to emerge from the opposition who would want civil war let alone be able to lead any segment of the military to war against America.
The Federal government would be in control of the Federal troops. During the Civil War, half of the states had seceded and no longer called themselves part of the United States. They had formed a new nation. The only way the military could split is if a new nation was formed, then they could choose. But whoever had the best weapons would win. I think in the modern era, the Federals would have a huge advantage.
They would probably take their home town's location in the country into consideration just like they did before. Most did not go over to the other side during the last civil war because of consideration for family and friends. I doubt it would be 50/50 but I don't think there would be one over politics in general as most people are content to go vote in the next election and a good many just follow the crowd.
Minorities don't matter. Americans against Americans would be the sides. Pretty much those for Socialism is one side, and any other disapproving or having any other opinions against the agenda would be the other.
Personally, if I were in the military, I'd have a very hard time committing genocide against my own people-- my own kind--- my own family, brothers and sisters alike.
I fought for these people, provided the care and securing of these people, so that they could go on with their lives in peace and have the freedoms and rights that still exist under the justification of the U.S. Constitution.
I find it very hard for the U.S. military to follow an order that clearly fights the people that have exploited the government for who they are-- a false, lying, corrupt government.
Each individual took an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution. Furthermore, by carrying out the unlawful orders of President Obama and his top officials, they too would be fraudulent under the document of the U.S. Constitution. Furthermore, the military CANNOT--- (MEANING IT DOES NOT HAVE A RIGHT) to deploy within the country for combatant purposes. However the, ';Patriot Act II'; eliminates line #10, allowing for such a role.
For once, I can finally say I'm glad I'm no longer in the military, but I pray for those individuals everyday. And I still, and always will support them, regardless of whom they side with.
With that being said, when it's all said and done, those trying to kill me will definitely meet resistance!
I'm on the U.S. Citizens side to take back the country from an unjust government!

';In case'; ? I'm really hoping this isn't something we're going to be preparing for. I'm multiracial, and so are my children, so we'd go to Canada, or somewhere else. If this country gets into a race war it won't just be Americans fighting. You think other countries are going to sit idly by?
seriously doubt it
The U.S. military, in all it's forms, works for and answer directly to, the Commander in Chief - President Obama. What race they are makes no difference - they can only take the side of the U.S. government. Anything else is desertion and possibly treason - still punishable by hanging, I believe.
Well the majority of the military are republicans ! Does that help , they also took an oath to uphold the Constitution !
We have another civil war in this nation it isn't going to be about north and south , or race ! It will be about taking back the control of our nation !
Well the people in our armed forces actaully stand by the oath they took they would be against the government. But I think we should consider all people that took the oath of enlistment as the weirmarch. They will carry out any order against the American people no matter how horrible, how unconstitutional and no matter how many millions they have to kill and will do so without question no matter their personal convictions. I hope I pissed off a few people in the services not because what I say about them but that I would see them doing what the SS did. And I know I'm invoking Godwin's law. What's your point?
There are very few true oath keepers around anymore and those that do exist are viewed as potential terrorists by the DHS.
We have a very simple way of looking at all military and police who would break their own to the constitution...
It will depend on the political situation, its related to the strength of Working Class.During Revolutions Armies are split along Class lines.Most Sergeants , Corporals and soldiers take the side of Proletariat.But I repeats , it depends on the political situation.
It should depend upon Constitutional justification, of course, but never mind that. I'm almost certain that this requirement would be all but ignored in a really, crazy-arsed, rebellion of crack shot rednecks against, say, sensible city dwellers- what a script for a Hollywood movie.
Whatever side that the president takes, that would be the side that the military takes, although soldiers can just go a-wall, the Military would stay with the commander and chief.
Liar! Mostly white

Where did you get that figure? Besides race doen't matter unless you perceive a race war. The military will do as everyone else in a all out civil war. Some will be on one side some on the other.
The US Military is under the command of the President. Anyone in the US military who turns against their commander and fights against the US government is guilty of Treason.
It will be probably be Right vs left.. THis song basically describes what it would bE LIke..

Hm. You assume its based on race. I think that the military could do their own thing and dominate everyone. Really, think of it...State Police vs. Army, Army will destroy.
If you define the sides based on race, they would probably split along race. But that question is so theoretical and far removed from present day reality, that it just can't be answered.
They will take the side of the constitution. The american people will be liberated.
The majority of the military has always been Republicans, liberals run to the borders when there's a war.
In a civil war, the military protects the incumbent government. That's what they've been sworn into.
';they also took an oath to uphold the Constitution !';
Why didn't they revolt when Bush tried to destroy the Constitution over the past 8 years?
yea gee race, you wouldn't think a civil war of that kind wouldn't be based on beliefs and views at all huh.... nice to know that you a fairly stereotypical!
I don't believe that we will have another Civil War but I do see the possibility of us having to defend our homes and families because of political unrest.
It wouldn't be a split based on race, it would be based on conservative vs liberal ideology, Red states vs. Blue states.
None, the US military is prohibited from deploying inside the United States.
Chances are they would teach the people who wanted to learn how to take care of themselves.
Good luck. The rest get a free train ride.
Of course. It's all based on race. Brilliant.
that would be a race war, if we were to have a civil war it would be red states vs. blue states not black and white
The Pentagon would seize the opportunity to stage a coup d'etat and take power for themselves.
/Both sides in the civil war would lose.
Whichever side the President tells them to be on.
