All the ingredients are there and it won’t take much to put it all together.

    The first Civil War was started when slave states sent squads up north to round up “escaped slaves” which frequently included all black people in a town, even if they’d never been enslaved. The free states tried to stop this, and then the traitors threw a hissy fit and got their shit kicked in.

    I can definitely see red states sending cops to arrest women fleeing to get an abortion, and free states trying to stop them and that leading to violence.
