When Lincoln signed the "Emancipation Proclamation", it only applied to the Confederate States, states that were a part of another nation, states he had no authority over
Lincoln did have authority over Maryland, Kentucky, Deleware, DC and Missouri. But did the Emancipation Proclamation apply to them......why, no, it didn't
Why didn't Lincoln free the slaves in his own territories, if he was so truly committed to abolition and this great hero everyone makes him out to be
And why is it that no one ever talks about the fact that he sent the military into Annapolis to depose the duly elected government of Maryland. He arrested the legislature. That is the kind of thing Hitler would do.
And why does no one talk about the journalists he arrested.
I will give Lincoln credit, he knew that punishing the South would have a negative effect, unfortunately his party didn't listen to him.
So, what I must know is, why do people give him such hero worship when he was clearly a tyrant
