It has been called the dress rehearsal for the Civil War.

Brown's party of 22 was defeated by a company of U.S. Marines, led by First Lieutenant Israel Greene.

I'm comparing what's going on today to something that went on 4 years ago.
You're saying it would be better to compare it to something that happened 161 years ago?

The point being that neither is analogous to what’s happening in Portland.
