        No, you didn’t, but you replied when no one asked you to.

        And in your comment it seemed like you were suggesting that it was right or at least tolerable for the US to pardon the treason of the Confederates who seceded and attacked the US in a desire to maintain slavery, but it was right to try and execute John Brown for treason because he attacked US property in a desire to end slavery. Was that your point?

          I think it’s be more tolerable to prosecute everyone than that Brown should have gone free.
