This is silly, American Indians didn't have the population you are speaking of by a factor of at least a 1000.
Mao, is by far the go to guy in term of numbers of people killed.

Scholars have varied widely on the estimated size of the indigenous populations prior to colonization and on the effects of European contact.[3] Estimates are made by extrapolations from small bits of data. In 1976, geographer William Denevan used the existing estimates to derive a "consensus count" of about 54 million people
18 million in continental US, now how many are there?

Just to illustrate how different people will defend just about anybody, this is from the Wikipedia article on Mao:
quote:
Supporters credit him with driving imperialism out of China,[3] modernising China and building it into a world power, promoting the status of women, improving education and health care, and increasing life expectancy as China's population grew from around 550 million to over 900 million during the period of his leadership.
Wikipedia Mao article
So, I guess the theory is he was a net positive on the population?
