What are the top ten man made events that killed the most Americans in all of history?

Question

I would like to have the list starting with the events that killed the most Americans.. 9/11 was horrific, but so was the civil war! Starting with the worst down, what single event killed the most of our people, and please list the commander and chief at the time. Pearl Harbor I guess could be included, although that was more like a war we got dragged into. A choice had to have been made.. Let some of us get bombed and hide the fact that we crack the enemies code or block Japans attack, and let them learn we cracked the code where now even more Americans could die cuz of that..

These are all hard moral and ethical choices to have been made but they were still choices none the less. If your leader is Hitler who believed in and tried to establish a new form of faith that was racist filled and named as warrior paganism the results will differ from one in which your leader followed the faith of Christianity. What they believe in is the most important consideration to judge a politician on.

I guess include every man made event starting with the most deaths of Americans. Stick to hard facts that actually happened as a result of someones actions. One last part to your answer.. At the bottom of your answer please list who you think the very worst American president was of all time.. For example did we need a civil war for slavery to have been stopped? It stopped in England with no war. Was the civil war really about slavery or was that a manipulated move to gain support for the mass murdering of thousands of Americans? Secession and the lost of tax revenue could be devastating for any country. Greed can't be your reason but freedom for the oppressed can be what you tell people it is.

We know there are weapons of mass destruction and they had nothing to do with 9/11. Sorry you thought we were going after those bad guys but these guys could end up being bad if we don't get their weapons.. Sorry we were wrong no weapons but its for democracy and fair elections.. This mission has to keep going because we are the nation builders. Giving them free elections is totally worth the lose of thousands of our young American soldiers. I mean isn't that why everyone joins the military? So you can get killed while trying to force other countries to be more like your country? These 100's of thousand Iraq people that died think free elections are worth their death too I'm sure. Maybe after they are done over there they can come back home and help us get fair elections too. I mean that would only be fair. Hacked voting Machines ooze democracy. Constitutional republic mixed with a little democracy and in reality we have wealthy bankers NWO totalitarian rule. Can anyone say communist country?

You see what I am saying.. Right choice or wrong choice isn't a factor to calculate in. Motive shouldn't effect your answer so don't leave out something cuz you think it was something we had to do or shouldn't have done. Right or wrong a choice was still made. Please add the worst top to bottom and list the worst president of all of history and why... This is very important to self reflect in order to make better choices later.

The proper role of government is to restrain crime of every sort. Keep us from getting invaded by other nations and to moderate issues between the states in efforts to keep them from going to war with each other.. Prevent civil wars basically. That is the only reason for government! The constitution is very clear on this role. Nothing more and that word is nothing more just in case you missed it and nothing less. But if it had to be one or the other less is the way to go. You can always give more power but you can't ever take it back without a revolution.

Worst man made event that killed the most Americans and then separately who was the worst president of all time and why? Thanks guys.

Answer 1

Genocide - United States 1492 to present day; Between 12 and 114 million Indians.

Abortion- 50 million.

Answer 2

Abortion has killed about 50 million in America so that would be the most deaths by a "man made event" - has killed more people than died in all countries during WWII.



I agree the genocide of Native Americans would be next at about 12 million people



The civil war would be next as a single event



Have you considered things like the use of tobacco? The legal use of alcohol? The use of automobiles?

Answer 3

Anyone with a decent education beyond just public schools KNOWS the Civil War wasn't over slavery. Abraham Lincoln made the war about slavery as a way to keep England and France from supporting the South. Not to mention what he did to this nation. However you can't exactly compare 9/11 and the War. I mean one is a single event and the other is an entire war over the course of 4 years(in a single day 9/11 killed far more then any day in the Civil War). One could easily argue that Lincoln was a terrible President if you want to talk about doing what they were sworn to do. No other President suspended Habeus Corpus. No other President ILLEGALLY created 2 new States(Utah didn't have enough Citizens, and West Virgina was illegally created). I know some will try to bring up the Patriot Act, but that was done by Congress(whether the President influenced it or not, they signed it and our current President is fine with keeping it).

Answer 4

Not in any order but here are a few..

9/11

Pearl Harbor

Civil war (the most American casualties ever)

The battle if little big horn

And there's a lot of small scale attacks on Americans such as the Boston Marathon bombs

And lastly you can forget any war we have been in because war is man made

Answer 5

over the years black on white crime has accumulated more deaths then the Vietnam war, i'd suppose the number one man made thing to cause the most death is multiculturalism
