President Lincoln and the Sioux Indian uprising in Minnesota in 1862

[L Verge]

Just to clarify my statement: I do not and was not condemning the Military Commission of 1865. I happen to believe that the powers-at-be had no other recourse but to have a military court try the conspirators. I made the terse statement to point out that the Sioux were little different from the conspirators in the process of the law.
