New York Magazine’s Chait ‘Votes’ For Oregon Militia Members To Be ‘Killed’

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.

"contemplate the concept of unintented [sic] consequences"

Read the book of the same name. It's online....

Really? Patrick Henry is rolling in his grave.

[freedomjusticeruleoflaw]

It’s Orwellian. “Your” means “our.” There is no such thing as people owning federal land, or being able to use it without restriction.

He thinks he should lie a-mouldering in the grave.

These are the same people that rooted for the branch Dravidians to be massacred.

I remember well the chairman of the house committee Jack Brookes (D) saying after his unbiased committee took a recess, (open mike on C-Span)that he would have put a missile into that place the first day. So much for an honest investigation.

How about a constitutional amendment that limits the federal lands within a state to 10%

How about limiting it to what the Constitution currently says, no amendment required.

There is no such thing as people owning federal land, or being able to use it without restriction.

Heck. There is no such thing as people owning private land, or being able to use it without restriction.

You mean John Brown, the terrorist that liked to hack unarmed people to death with a broadsword? That John Brown?

[ScottinVA]

Interesting these people weren’t calling for shooting to kill the blacks who burned up Baltimore and Ferguson, and blocked highways and commercial districts in numerous other areas.

Meanwhile, Mexican drug cartels control swaths of other national wildlife refuges, such as the Buenos Aires refuge in southern Arizona.

Yeah. I posted a link. Kinda hard to miss.

[Boogieman]

You posted a link about his raid, which is generally regarded as less loathsome an act than the previous massacres he committed.

[cowboyway]

That is correct but it fits in with the current situation, i.e., a disgruntled group taking over a federal facility. Get it?

And, hopefully, you understand the message that I’m trying to convey by using John Brown who, at the time of the raid on Harper’s Ferry, many in the north considered to be a hero.

[Boogieman]

“many in the north considered to be a hero”

Not enough to save him from the noose.

[cowboyway]

One more time: The point of this post is a ‘journalist’ calling for the death of people who have taken over a federal facility in protest of an issue that they feel strongly about. I think that if this ‘journalist’ were asked about John Brown, who took over a federal facility in protest of an issue that he felt strongly about, he, Chait, would consider Brown a hero.
