become bigots, racists, and white supremacists? Right-wing militias only carry guns to make them look big and strong, but at their core they are bullies and cowards, and anti-social, anti-American asshats.

This is a Group whose SOP is the reduction of gun violence -- not the promotion of more gun violence. The correct answer would be to pass laws that would not allow unstable and violent people to have guns in the first place.

If you actually want a civil war, there are many in progress in other parts of the world that you and your brother could volunteer for.
