A man in Charleston SC before the war said if war does come he could wipe up any blood that was shed with his handkerchief. People had no idea what had been unleashed.

Yep. And we saw the same thing in 1914 as WW1 began. British soldiers heading to the front said, “We’ll give the Kaiser a bloody nose, and be home by Christmas.”
And so a whole generation of British men was damn near wiped out.
ZERO idea what as unleashed. Sadly, it seems we have to relearn that idea time after time.
One side wanted to invade and subjugate the other, and of course people fought back against the invaders.
People will fight hard to defend their homeland.
