not sure I buy that though

2017-08-26 04:27:17 UTC  

The question I will always have was that Lincoln had NO Security detail to speak of, he would go horseback riding by himself and there were Southern agents all over Washington. Why didnt anyone do the deed before? I cant think of any other reason but the Kike Benjamin

2017-08-26 04:27:20 UTC  

didnt want it to happen

2017-08-26 04:27:51 UTC  

To me its almost surreal, you have 4 years to pull it off and no one is willing to do it

2017-08-26 04:28:09 UTC  

I think there was a crippling sense of honor and dignity

2017-08-26 04:28:24 UTC  

war was fought on battlefields at scheduled times in an organized fashion

2017-08-26 04:28:30 UTC  

Well not only that but there were plenty of SOutherners not connected to the government

2017-08-26 04:28:35 UTC  

who would have done it

2017-08-26 04:28:39 UTC  

you didn't off the president while he was going about his normal affairs

2017-08-26 04:28:40 UTC  

but no one even tried really

2017-08-26 04:28:46 UTC  

thats just wierd to me

2017-08-26 04:28:54 UTC  

all it would have took was one good sharpshooter

2017-08-26 04:29:05 UTC  

I don't think it was seen as an honorable thing to do

2017-08-26 04:29:22 UTC  

Well true but the thing was it didnt even have to do with the govt

2017-08-26 04:29:32 UTC  

yea I know

2017-08-26 04:29:35 UTC  

there were shitloads of Confederate deserters and soldiers in hospitals

2017-08-26 04:29:39 UTC  

who would gladly have did it

2017-08-26 04:29:50 UTC  

the entire region I grew up in would ahve done it

2017-08-26 04:29:51 UTC  

Booth in fact had direct access to the President for years before

2017-08-26 04:30:01 UTC  

the broke confederate POWs out of jail all the time

2017-08-26 04:30:03 UTC  

he knew Vice President Johnson personally

2017-08-26 04:30:15 UTC  

It was literally that easy

2017-08-26 04:30:16 UTC  

ferried them across the potomac

2017-08-26 04:30:30 UTC  

The Only thing I can arrive at is this

2017-08-26 04:30:40 UTC  

Benjamin who was I believe a traitor

2017-08-26 04:30:46 UTC  

WOuldntn give the order

2017-08-26 04:30:54 UTC  

for his own reasons

2017-08-26 04:31:28 UTC  

Jubal Earlys men almost were able to carry it out in 64 too

2017-08-26 04:31:31 UTC  

and couold have

2017-08-26 04:31:46 UTC  

Lincoln himself stood up on the fort and looked out on them

2017-08-26 04:31:52 UTC  

yet no one did it

2017-08-26 04:31:59 UTC  

That will always be the Paradox

2017-08-26 04:32:22 UTC  

certainly would have saved lots of lives

2017-08-26 04:32:24 UTC  

Thats what always makes me mad about that whole business

2017-08-26 04:32:55 UTC  

Secession was a mistake, the Confederacy was a mistake. The Virginia milita could have captured Washington right after the Election

2017-08-26 04:33:00 UTC  

shot everyone and took over

2017-08-26 04:33:02 UTC  

Easy

2017-08-26 04:33:08 UTC  

kept ownership of the United States

2017-08-26 04:33:16 UTC  

and no one would have been able to stop them

2017-08-26 04:33:42 UTC  

The Confederacy was sadly the worst solution but it was the only one the Conservatives would approve

2017-08-26 04:33:59 UTC  

You ever been to Anteitem?
