Tis a dismal prospect that forebodes civil war, if we last that long.
We are much too violent and well armed as a people to think that a civil war will result in anything other than most dead and everything burned to the ground

I guess my idea is that it will be the cities where the civil war erupts. Not so much an organized engagement but more as the normal authorities pulling back from areas where the remaining occupants slug it out with each other and burn their neighborhoods. Then they will raid into the surrounding areas.
