The Right is growing increasingly censorial. I wouldn't doubt this charade was planned, instigated, or otherwise an act of political theatre, although I disagree the whitehouse had anything to do with it.

Are we ramping up to an actual civil war maybe? Just a question, I don't understand it as good as some of you guys seem to.

It certainly was. Both of these two are reporters for The Rebel. Mike Cernovich offered money to protest this.
This was not organic, it was planned.
But I agree, there is zero evidence this was ordered from the white house.

If there was a civil war, the right would win quite easily would they not? The left would hardly have any weapons and the military would join the right? Maybe it's best it happens sooner rather than later? Just thinking aloud here, why give the left any time to prepare? Strike now?

It's possible but not likely. I fully defend rights, but the generation on our shoulders will eventually be where we are now. Unless things shift for the better.

Eh I am not sure about all of that.
The guy seems like a tool, and I disagree with what him and this woman did.
But taking orders from the White House?
Come on now. This is no better than claiming Obama is telling antifa to protests things.
The situation was framed by some on social media as an “assassination attempt.” Donald Trump Jr. and Trump social media campaign aide Dan Scavino Jr. retweeted claims regarding the alleged “assassination attempt,” according to tweets screen-shotted by The Washington Post, which have since been removed.

Hillary ran away from rain today. Trump is back on stage minutes after assassination attempt.

DeploraBall co-sponsor Jeff Giesea, also a former Stanford Review editor, worked for Thiel Capital Management in the late 1990s. Last year, Giesea partnered with far-right blogger Mike Cernovich on MAGA3X, a digital operation dedicated to waging meme warfare on behalf of Trump’s campaign. Enlisting a network of pro-Trump Twitter influencers such as former BuzzFeed employee Anthime Gionet (a.k.a. Baked Alaska) and right-wing troll Jack Posobiec, the group spread Breitbart News content and memes based on conspiracy theories such as #SpiritCooking and #Pizzagate.
The DeploraBall stirred controversy among the alt-right when Giesea and Cernovich decided to remove Gionet from their “featured guests” list after he posted several anti-Semitic tweets. But Giesea told me that he generally agrees with the views of alt-right fellow travelers such as Yiannopoulous. In January, he told BuzzFeed, “I see Trumpism as the only practical and moral path to save Western civilization from itself.”
But it wasn’t until the arrival months later of Steve Bannon, who brought with him an in-depth knowledge of the internet’s underbelly acquired while growing the anti-establishment Breitbart News, that the campaign’s engagement with the fever swamps reached its apogee. By the fall, a team in the war room at Trump Tower was monitoring social media trends, including The_Donald subreddit—a message board that acted as a conduit between 4Chan and the mainstream Web and refers to its users as “centipedes” in honor of the aforementioned video—and[ b]privately communicating with the most active users to seed new trends, according to two former Trump campaign officials. The team would bump up anything particularly catchy to social media director Dan Scavino. (Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks said there were no staffers dedicated full-time to monitoring social media trends, and that Bannon was not involved in social media strategy.) But one former campaign official said the goal was to relentlessly tilt the prevailing sentiment on social media in favor of Trump: “He clearly won that war against Hillary Clinton day after day after day.”

I hope the MSM is happy.
They have started a civil war.

That's all we can do at this point, I have hope things can do a reversal atleast to the point that people start hoping again for a brighter future.
