We had a second American Revolution already, it was called the civil war, those who rose up against the consolidation of federal power LOST get over it.

The fact that the gov now has access to to weapons your standard civiliian can’t hope to match would just make the third one that much more of a slaughter…

Actually, the Civil war was less about the consolidation of Federal power and more about the non-slave states asserting that their laws were just as valid slave states, who were trying to claim their laws regarding runaway slaves and property ownership took precedence.
