RE: President Lincoln and the Sioux Indian uprising in Minnesota in 1862
I understand that there are people who disapprove of Lincoln's action as president regarding the Sioux. I suppose what confuses me is what they feel Lincoln could have/should have done in this case, vs. the action he actually took. I have asked this question for years, ever since I learned of the mass execution but I have never once received a reply.

Do they feel he should he have commuted the sentences of every one of them?
