Democide: Socialism, Tyranny, Guns and
Freedom
The first widely studied modern democide occurred in Turkey between 1915 and 1923, when the Turkish government decided to eliminate the country’s Christian minority, primarily ethnic Armenians and Greeks who had Turkish roots extending back to before the Islamic conquest. Two million Christians were murdered on forced marches into deserts without water or food. This democide occurred in view of Western reporters, who took photographs and posted contemporary wire reports. The fact that the democide was known outside Turkey did not deter the Turkish leaders.

No seditious or treasonous remarks against the United States or threats of violence against a specfic person or official of the US, State, or local govt.
EXAMPLE: "We ought to hang all the damn politicians and lawyers"
This is okay because it is logistically impossible, and I don't think we have enough money for all the rope we would need or enough light posts to hang them from, so therefore it must be satire.
