In 1965 one person died in Selma for improving U.S. civil rights. In 1865 680,000 died in Gettysburg so the U.S. could survive. What we’re looking at here is either a total lack of proportion or a flat out hatred for the U.S.

The Battle of Gettysburg was in 1863, and estimates of the dead generally run 50-60K.

“Flat out hatred” is Barkey’s life's work.

#BlackLivesMatter! Unless another black takes them! White lives are only for the use of expiation for the original sin of being born white! And to create a First World for People Of Color to come there to be oppressed!

Actually, at Gettysburg (01-03 July 1863) there were 23,000 casualties.

Thought the 680K figure for the whole war is right on...
