Lincoln 4

Abraham Lincoln and Slavery--- The Untold Story:

Many people see Abraham Lincoln as the main reason slavery was demolished- a peace-lover and slavery stopper. Many think of him as a wonderful president. But this is only the top story, most likely derived from what Lincoln himself wrote. People never like to be frowned upon, but the truth always comes out sometime or another.

Now, let’s do a refresher course:

Lincoln stops slavery because he doesn’t like it. HEY! Wait one second. Is this really true? No. Lincoln actually used his protests against slavery to annoy and manipulate his enemies. Some of you may not know that Lincoln actually sent all of the freed slaves packing to Africa, where they were likely to be re-captured.

Lincoln would never, ever put people into concentration camp, right? He might as well have sent them back into slavery if he did that. But YES!! Lincoln did put people into concentration without trial, thinking that they were southern sympathizers. No background checks were ever run. Just POW! Off into concentration camp. Why protest slavery if you are just going to enforce it all over again???

Suddenly, Abe Lincoln doesn’t look as honest as he claims. And that isn’t even HALF of his wrongdoings. He sent useless generals off into war, and if they failed, he replaced them.  He is said to be a man of peace, yet was the cause of many bloody battles in which hundreds died and many families were left in sorrow. Really peaceful, huh?

Slave hater of lover? You decide. Peacemaker or the reason of many deaths, sorrows, and blood spilling? I can’t decide if I really like Abraham Lincoln. He used to be my favorite president…. Until I found out the truth.
