"His administration . . . coincided with the Dakota War of 1862. The latter event, which occurred in Minnesota, resulted in Lincoln's upholding the execution of 38 Dakota (Sioux) warriors, as well as pardoning more than 300 others charged with war crimes.”

Counter argument by Professor Michael Burlingame:

"In the summer of 1862, Dakota Indians in Minnesota . . . attacked white men, women, and children along the frontier, killing hundreds and driving over 30,000 from their homes. It was the bloodiest massacre of civilians on U.S. soil prior to September 11, 2001."

At the 5:07 mark of the video, the news commentator states: "They had nothing to do with feces left at the Abe Lincoln statue."

Start a fire and it gets a little out of control and you're not responsible.

Maybe people should not start a fire unless they know what they are talking about.
