Jefferson Davis - He should've died in prison. He was responsible for so much death, destruction, misery.

No, the real deal was that the North had the opportunity to prove Davis was a traitor but could not and so included Him in a blanket amnesty, so that they, the North, would not be seen as the real traitor.

Neither Davis or anyone else in the South were traitor. Had they been, the North would have tried and hung them. No one in the South was hung for treason. Your statement is a lie.

Quantrill, you can yell all night. Go for it. Useless.

President Buchanan felt that secession did not violate the constitution. The feeling at the time was encapsulated in the Declaration of independence
The opening line of the U.S. Declaration of Independence continues: "...for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them..."This iconic preamble, drafted by Thomas Jefferson and adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, serves as a formal explanation and justification for America's separation from Great Britain.The full text and historical context of the document can be explored. So, no treason l

No, it does not. It is one man's explanation and rustication for one community's complaint against a mother country.

It is not justification for the South to revolt against a Union, an indivisible nation.

The South tried and was executed for its abhorrent criminality.

You will have to resurrect Buchanan and explain it to him.

The south was never in a state of revolt. The south did not want to overcome and replace the union, merely to separate from it. Your lack of knowledge is astounding.

Your arguments are a rejection of reality. You go with that.
 
Today in History: Cain slew Abel with a rock and didn't spend a day in jail. That sucks!!!
 
Huh?

Take your hurt feelings and, well you know. Who desecrated a grave?

It's a toss up. The Three Stooges as a team.
Hurt feels? By YOU??? you are only useful as a target of mockery.
