He didn't fight to free the black slaves. This is the myth of they yankees and the blacks. They view Lincoln as the black Moses, who delievered them from slavery and brought them to the promised land.
The 'Emancipation Proclamation' was a war measure. It was not a humanitarian measure. It wasn't given till 1863, The war started in 1861. If the war was all about freeing the slaves and Lincoln was all about freeing the slaves, why didn't he emancipate in 1861?
Have you read the Emancipation proclamation. You should. It didn't free one slave. Lincolcn declared the slaves free in 'Confederate held territories' only. At this time in 1863, the yankees has already taken over much of the South where slaves existed. Guess what? They were not freed because they were no longer in Confederate held territories. So, Lincoln proclaimed the salves free that he couldn't free. Yet left the slaves in bondage who he could have freed.
It was a war measure. Lincoln hoped to inspire the slaves in the South to rise up against their masters and their families and kill them. But, guess what? They didn't. And they could have as most of the men of the South were gone to war. Instead the black slaves who had been part of the Southern culture, and their families, instead took care of those families instead of rebelling and klling them as Lincoln wanted them to do. Of course the NAACP will never give that history, as it doesn't make any hay for them.
Lincoln believed all the blacks should be sent back to Africa. Oh My....

I'm ignorant of history?
Maybe I am.
So are you making the claims that:
a) Quantrill's group did NOT surround Lawrence, burn it down, and murder the people there?
b) Quantrill did NOT work as a bounty hunter, capturing escaped slaves?
c) Quantrill was NEVER a cattle rustler, or outlaw, and he never broke any laws?
