The 60s are still in living memory, so I think we can be expected to remember there are quite a few grades between "domestic harmony" and "civil war" Not thrilled that we're going to be exploring a bunch of them! But the "imminent civil war" takes are overbaked

P.S. State and federal charges are not mutually exclusive under the dual sovereignty doctrine (and it looks like MN is seeking charges). Personally I think state has greater interest here and should go first
