Saddest Events In United States History

Whoever makes jokes about this event are cruel bastards who want to become psychopaths.

A tragic event that happened for no reason and innocent people died when they shouldn't have

Well, Yeah. 3,000 lives were lost because of terrorists destroying the Twin Towers.

I still can't watch 9/11 footage because it makes me want to cry.

JFK was a great President. If he wasn’t assassinated, many terrible events would have been prevented.

The best USA president,actually,is the only good one.

He was just watching a play at a theater and then someone killed him because the Confederacy surrendered?

It ruined the lives of countless Africans, gave us gruesome stories about the cruelty of the slave-masters, started a war that killed hundreds of thousands of people, made racism a staple of American culture even after it officially ended.

By far the saddest series of events in American history.

Very sad when compared to 9/11 or JFK assassination.

it was a suprize attack on hospitle and military and civilans

wars just bad un jenral waes be bad and sad

This was sadder than sandy hook sandy hook should not be in the top 10

When I found out about this I was so furious that I destroyed the whole entire house and then burned it down out of anger and then I was grounded for an entire year. So if that shooting didn't even happen, I would have never been grounded for a year. (That story is made up)

Angry Grandpa's reaction to it... :(

20 children and 6 adults died all because of some psycho.

This was a sad day

Over 600,000 dead; more than were lost during WW2.

Worst than sandy hook and killed more people so yea

Okay that's it sandy hook is so damn overrated seriously how it worst than hurricane Katrina Orlando night club shooting and Virginia tech columbine is worst than sandy hook why you know what they say the original is always the best in this case the original is always the deadliest

Should be higher than Sandy Hook. This was the deadliest shooting in US history.

Worst than sandy hook

How can the “Trail of Tears” not be in the top 5? And why on earth are assassinations considered sadder moments than the enslavement of an entire race of people and the death of a half million Americans in the Civil War?

This lead to the start of the Great Depression.

Even his children are all sad about his death, especially his daughter. 😢

I miss Michael Jackson!

So sad I feel bad

The saddest thing to ever happend 2007

This is when two bullied teenagers chose to go on a rampage in their school and kill 13 people but also set bombs in the cafeteria to kill everyone inside the school.
