RE: "Alias Paine"
I don't agree Laurie. We can't commit all kinds of atrocities because we are at war and can rationalize doing wrong. We have a political system that was made to handle change. If you don't get the change you want, you can keep trying.

This was not a questions of Jeff Davis and the confederat gov't regrouping. It's "I'm going down and I'm taking as many with me as I can"
As long as I have a noble cause, anything goes?

This is not an issue of fighting an enemy. This is shooting a defenseless man from behind, trying to kill an invalid in his sickbed. It's an act of desperation and cowardness.

All kinds of atrocities were committed during the war. Still does not make them right. Still does not make them the proper standard of behaviour.
When your on the wrong road, how long do you stay the course? As for Booth, if it were just about killing the president and throwing the union into turmoil, serving the cause, he would not have shot Lincoln in a public place. He wanted the audience, he wanted the attention.

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?
