A Word To The Wise - "You're A Mercenary If..." | Zero Hedge
"The Burning Platform's Jim Quinn notes that:
I have no idea if Major General Higginbotham actually penned this or not but it is a stark warning, one that I have maintained for years, that a civil war in North America (if it happens in the USA it will take Mexico and Canada along for the ride) will not be as cut and dry and as some folks would like.
There are no definable sides to our current predicament, no political organization to speak of, and as such a wide spread conflict would become chaos in short order.
The continent would get very tribal very quickly. Political ideologues proceed with caution.

“If you are paid $25.00 an hour to show up to a rally to “counter” the other party using physical force and violence, you are not a “counter protestor.”
You are a mercenary.
There is no need for further debate on this.
You were paid to attack someone you don’t know for reasons that you couldn’t care enough about to go there for free.
You did your “job” and collected your check and your reimbursement of expenses.
You’re a mercenary.
Not a Patriot. 
Not a Social Justice Warrior. 
Not a Defender of Freedom or Liberty. 
Not an upholder of Truth or Justice. 
None of those things you claim to be. 
You are a mercenary.
...All you young and naive kids on both sides of this equation who think that having a Civil War will advance your agenda or restore your vision of what you think is America, just remember this… Those of us older generations aren’t having any of this shit.
And if you jump off, you better be prepared to deal with US.
We don’t care what color you’re wearing or what sign you’re holding if you come after us, our friends, our family, our co-workers, our neighbors, etc., WE will kill you.
So remember that when you’re thinking that it’s just Left vs Right, or Liberal vs Conservative, or Commie vs. Fascist.
We are the variable you’re not considering.
That “Silent Majority” that you pretend does not exist is getting really sick and tired of your bullshit.
