These people have not changed since the days when Bill Ayers told an FBI informant that he figured when the Weathermen took power they’d have to kill at least 20 million of us.
“when the Weathermen took power they’d have to kill at least 20 million of us.”
What a child he was. Like we would just get in the boxcars.
The general number given to me in my military classes is that about 2% is the MINIMUM number of deaths necessary to end a civil war. 10% being the upper number. With a population of about 350 million that would put the range between 6 million to just over 35 million.
In 1860, the population of the US was about 31.5 million. Total deaths attributed to to the civil war is an estimate 620 thousand - About 2%. Compared to other conflicts such as the Taiping Rebellion (20 to 30 million dead), it was a small civil war.
I believe that Civil War II is coming and will be far bloodier than the first. 5% to 10% deaths may very well be likely.
