“Or the Civil War? Or termites?”
The Civil Was wasn’t an external attack.
You do remember we were actually INVADED by the British Army, right? I’m just pointing out that stating that this was the biggest attack ever is not only granting too much power to our enemy, but ignores quite a lot of history.
“The Civil Was wasn’t an external attack.”
We can argue semantics all day. On Dec 24th 1860 South Carolina declared it’s independence from these United States. The exact same legal way that the US had declared independence from Britian. Legally, the south formed a new nation. An excerpt:
We, therefore, the People of South Carolina, by our delegates in Convention assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, have solemnly declared that the Union heretofore existing between this State and the other States of North America, is dissolved, and that the State of South Carolina has resumed her position among the nations of the world, as a separate and independent State; with full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which independent States may of right do.
Adopted December 24, 1860
My original point was/is that the single greatest death toll/attack on US soil was carried out with box cutters. Now the congress critters want to restrict our freedoms with guns because of that? Ridiculous..
