Lincoln, the "Great Emancipator," also signed the death warrants for the mass hanging of more than 38 "Indians" who had the nerve to object to the theft of their lands, the rape of their women, and the outright genocide of of damn near all Native men, women & children. To his "credit," Lincoln reduced the original number of Indians "convicted" of insurrection from over 400 down to "only" 38.
