Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I give my "Boston T. Party's Seal of Approval"!
Review: Chittum makes a very compelling case for America cracking at her ethnic seams in about 20 years. Not at all a racist book, but thoroughly logical. A very timely and unique title.

I quoted from it extensively in my book "Hologram of Liberty."

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Very flawed logic
Review: Chittum obviously ignored the history of this country when he wrote this book. First off he engages in the kind of anti-immigrant sentiment that countless people have in the past, only he targets hispanic immigrants rather than the southern European immigrants of the late 19th century. He writes nothing of American Vernacular culture, which eventually breaks down all immigrant communities regardless of what race or ethnic group they are. Another thing I find irritating is the way he refers to New Mexico as a "mini third-world country", just because half of it's population is non-white. Overall this has failed to convince me of anything horrible happening in this country because of race or ethnicity. Also, for anyone who believes that Chittum is not a racist or right wing extremist, please take a look at his website.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wake up!
Review: Civil War Two is slowly coming to Amerika. I think within the next 20 years you could see the rise of militant Hispanic staging an insurrection in the Southwest, or perhaps a counterinsurrection against a nationalist attack.Any way we go, the next 50 years aren't going to be pretty.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: an interesting look at our future
Review: Every schoolchild who is being force-fed the cultural "diversity" at all costs mantra, should be required to read this book. The current morass in Yugoslavia will be repeated here in 20 to 50 years. The fact is, that despite our Utopian dreams, people group according to similar cultures and beliefs, and choose to be among similar people. When we realize that and adjust our immigration policies accordingly, we may stave off widespread civil war and unrest. If not, prepare for a lot of strife and bloodshed.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The facts alone are just the start.
Review: I have read a great deal of the "coming future" books. Mr. Chittum not only has an opinion of the coming Civil War II, but also gives us something to do "When Something Happens". He uses the best "Facts and Figures" explanation of the things to come. Rememer, Whoever wins the war, writes the history books.This book is a must...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Has some problems, but its still good
Review: I read through this book in 2 days. It was both interesting and intelligenly written. Unlike many other books that discuss such subjects, this one is very well refferenced.

Plus, unlike many others who discuss this subject, the author is not one of those really extreme right wingers who hates everyone thats not white or something like that. He does not toss out hateful slogans against any race, he merely points out facts. The facts are that no great nation has ever been multi-cultural and stayed together without brutal enforcement of "equality" by the government-such as happened in the former U.S.S.R., or as probably will happen here to some extent. We aren't all going to just "get along". The establishment keeps pushing multi-culturalism more and more, thinking it will somehow help matters. Yet things just keep getting worse and worse. The main opposing philosophy to books like these is that they don't sound nice. But the critics of such literature canno attack it with logical or substansiated arguements, so instead, they just shut their ears and eyes and yell "racist! Exremist! Hate monger!". Well, I think this book is correct in showing how the liberal establishment will someday have to open their eyes and face reality. I would like it if a multi-cultural society could succeed, but its not, it never has, and probably never will. This book helps to elaborate on the factors of such things rather well.

However, the problems with this cannot be ignored.

First off, he completely fails to adress the situation in the Northwest. This place is ripe with militias and right-wingers, it will surely become an area of great conflict when Civil War II breaks out. Yet the author does not speak at all of this.

Secondly, while reading his book, I came away with the feeling that he over-hyped certain things. For example, he claims that black revolts and mass riots in the South will turn into small wars that will be equally as large as those which will happen in the Southwest. This is somewhat ridiculous. Blacks are not increasing in numbers anywhere near as much as hispanics, nor do they show many of the militant signs of "taking back" the South as hispanics seem to show in the Southwest. Also, I think the estimated time of Civil War II's ignition is a little early. This book seems to put forth the overall claim that it will happen in 50 years or less. I suppose you have to give all those out there who are waiting eagerly for everything to collapse (the para-military extremist types) a reason to buy the book; so that they can get excited about a SOON to come all out war. However, I'd say that Civil War II won't break out for another 40-70 years.

All in all, despite the flaws, this is still an excellent book, and well worth the price. If you have an open mind, you won't regret buying it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: You may not agree.but ignore at your own peril!
Review: I received a copy of this little paperback as a "loaner" from a friend who wanted my opinion of it. As a professional scientist,I approached this volume as objectively as possible,looking for flaws in reasoning and logical failures. I found none.

I am sure that political "Liberals" and those who choose to be thought"Politically Correct" will uniformly hate this work,since it pretty well dumps on one of their sacred cows:diversity. Mr. Chittum has compiled some pretty interesting statistics on political/social stability in a number of different countries and sets up a model for analysis;i.e. Nation vs. Empire. In a logical sense,one needs to examine the premises that are stated;are they correct or not? If the premises are not flawed and the reasoning sound,then it is pretty hard to dispute the conclusion.

Mr. Chittum's main premise is that the racial demographics of the U.S.A. are changing. Fact or Fiction? The most recent census figures show this a FACT.

Another premise is that as the demographics change,the various groups involved become more polarized and militant. Mr. Chittum publishes an impressive list of racially concious militant groups, and not very many of which are "white-power" groups.

The Conclusion arrived at by the author,based on comparisons with other countries, is that some form of open conflict is inevetible in the future.

I found this book to be very thought-provoking and rather disturbing;I would rather be "disturbed" than blind sided. Ignore this book "at your own risk". Although I do not agree with the author on a few of his suggestions on what to do in preparation for Civil War II, I give him 5 stars for effort and 4 stars for presentation.Highly recommended.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Being Rational
Review: I was very obvious to me, the profound level of ignorance that this author possessed. It's clear that Mr. Chittum's racially-biased point of view is based on facts that are incorrect and points of view that are quite irrational. I pity a man that has to console himself with lies filled with ignorance and superficial, racial superiority. The delusional paranoia illustrated in this book clearly states obvious symptoms of an uncultured, frustrated man. Authors of books like this one and "The Turner Diaries" are proof of the shameful, uneducated ignorance that someday, god willing may be forgotten.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Paranoid, purblind, and painfully stupid
Review: I'd purchased this book some years ago from Loompanics, hoping for a well-analyzed and well-reasoned discussion of those factors most likely to negatively influence the social and political unity of these United States in the near future. That's not what I found between the covers of this publication. Mr. Chittum has regurgitated a lot of plain, old-fashioned bigotry, thinking somehow that he had smoothly disguised the bile and the muriatic acid by dosing himself with a bottleful of Maalox before vomiting into his word processor. Not bloody likely. Nothing original, nothing perceptive, and nothing of any real value except as an insight into the mindset of a humorless praxeological cripple.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: BUY NOW -- While There's Still Time!
Review: Mr. Chittum is about 20 years ahead of his time, so, there's still time for you to study his book carefully and make plans for yourself and your family accordingly, before the full demographic disaster occuring in the USA hits the proverbial fan of world history.

Many of his predictions for the USA -- listed in an appendix -- are ALREADY coming true, like clockwork. This book is so masterfully on target that you could literally make a checklist out of its predictions.

Mr. Chittum's discussion of ethnic make-up versus stability is elegant and brilliant. The one-page chart showing the obvious correlation, in country after country, will hit you like a lightening bolt of common sense.
