What we had was very rare.
And even that wasn't a "side A vs. side B" war, there were plenty of neutrals and plenty of folks fighting long after the war ended. News took a lot longer to travel back then

Wasn’t there a lag between that event and a civil war? Asking for a friend?
Missouri Compromise ->
John Brown ->
Election of 1860 ->
Fort Sumter
Outside of WW1 it’s never one event and even that had economic issues and other factors involved.

Most Americans expect political violence to keep growing in the United States and believe that it is likely a political candidate will be assassinated in the next few years.
In the next few years?
It's already happening...

George Floyd almost did it.. In fact, it did to some extent.

At most, we might have something akin to The Troubles. An 1864 style civil war ain’t happening
