#1 This guy Nolan----aside from eating Brie and tweeting, what else has he done? Ever learned basic marksmanship and safe handling of firearms? Rode the subway? There ya go. Pontificating commuter.

#3 aw look - here's your clue that this is (albeit lame) satire coz not even the most retarded leftarded bat of the lunar species could compose this seriously.

"Reggae music is an ineffective pre-war motivational tool".

No shit leftard. I love me some reggae, 4 subjects - sex politics religion and dope, wrong on all yet still compelling - da riddimz, mon.

Love (H)island patois - we have coarse anglo-saxon C words and F words - hell, Jamaican cuss word sound positively edible.

"Yeah Man, give I two a dem beef cla'ats an a cheese bombo"

Civil war? not even a good meme war, read the whole thing for laughs.

#4 If the guns come out the trucks stop rolling. Food stores are empty in 3 days. The FSA revolt and burn the cities along with their liberal inhabitants.

I can live without the internet.

#6 Farmer's markets and heavy rifles. No gas and the nearest place with food to sell, or available is 40 miles away.
In the cities think Venezuela and its Winter, very cold. No dogs around ( for some reason ), or cats either. Ammo is more valuable than currency. And you don't have any real friends, do you?
Your money won't buy anything. What else, you got?

#7 He's a complete idiot, and his ignorance is a huge part of the problem.

#8 Once the power and water goes off and the roads are blocked the mainly democratic cities have 48 hours before they're toast.
A dispersed enemy can beat a concentrated enemy, especially as they have a ridiculous supply train (try finding an organic quinoa meal pack to go with your civet lattes).

#9 Just try an assault on a "quinceanera party".

Lot's of the Dads, Grandpas (Abuelos) and Uncles (Tios) might be packing. They won't be too kind if you try to assault their little girls.

#10 The Moms, Aunts and the Grandmothers would get their licks in, too.

The 'Abuelas' might get particularly nasty.

#11 This article sounds like a parody of sports commentators doing a pregame sports show. That's about how seriously I take it.

#13 Think I'll go back and view Sheriff Clarke mauling that moron Don Lemmon on CNN.

#14  When the power goes off in a major city during a heat wave, hundreds or thousands will start dying in 48 hours due to lack of A/C. This was responsible for a large fraction of the deaths just after Hurricane Katrina. Elderly will be the first to go. Massive evacuation of tens of thousands (safely) is only possible during peacetime. Our electric grid is ridiculously vulnerable.

#15 I can't wait to confront the Pajama Boy brigade.

#17 The right has the guns, the farmland and the areas surrounding the cities.

Guess what happens when no food, water, electricity or fuel moves into them?

It will be Bosnia on a continent wide scale. And you idiots will lose.

#18  Head-on assaults on mosques, quinceanera parties, and college dorms

He left out gay bath-houses. Y'know, just to cover the demographics...

#20 Lol are we sure this isn't parody?

We also got all the stink oil, smelly refineries and most power plants.

#21 They watch a lot of UFC. They carry the revolutionary zeal of notable groups like the Confederacy and the Nazi Party.

How does this guy miss NASCAR, Bass Pro Shops and Natty Light drinkers in his list of stereotypes? Amateur.

#22 High proportion of elderly crackpots could hold back fighting units when traveling for speed and distance

Wrong. "F-150's"

#23 The right has the guns

At the risk sounding like Eeyore:

Actually, the left has plenty of guns -- just look at the gangbangers, the imported criminals and, soon, the rapefugees from the Middle East.

Not to mention many hypocritical SWPLs who denounce guns while getting them for themselves.

They may not all be great shots, but they have a ruthless willingness to use force and the backing of the Ministry of Truth.

OTOH, a lot of people on our side get the vapors over "crudeness".

The outcome of a fight between these two cohorts is not absolutely certain to me.

#25 Charger,

When it comes to gang banging idiots vs. disciplined riflemen interspersed with vets... I'll take the right any day when it comes to killing efficiently, quickly and ruthlessly.

#26 DV - one thing to put in the "not to be forgotten file"; in a true riot where TSHHTF, concentrate on neutralizing the second and third ranks of the rioters. NOT the first rank. The professional organizers are behind the 1st/2nd ranks urging the drones onward. Take them out and the mob will break and run. Just saying.
