" December of 1862 was a grisly month of a grisly year. Abraham Lincoln received dire reports from the horrifying battle at Fredricksburg, Virginia, and he had an eye on the scene unfolding on the windswept prairie of Mankato, Minnesota. In that far-flung corner of the nation, the U.S. Army prepared to execute 303 Sioux that had attacked white settlements with “extreme ferocity” the previous August and September. The overwhelming number of souls involved and the jurisprudence of the military required Lincoln to review the evidence personally. He asked Judge Advocate General Joseph Holt if he could delegate this responsibility, but that was out of the question. Lincoln looked at the files and found cause to commute the sentences of 264 individuals, and one of the condemned was granted a reprieve. The other thirty-eight warriors were hanged on December 26 in what was, and remains, simultaneously the largest mass execution and largest act of executive clemency in American history. A mere five days later Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation "
Just because you oppose capital punishment does not make lawful executions a crime
I dont oppose capital punishment. I just dont see why white people can steal land and then kill the people for fighting to get it back and everyone should look at those white people as being honorable enough to name a school after. I know I dont.

dont hold people of that tome to modern standards of conduct because native tribes were naturally brutal themselves
