So tell me straight up yes or no, do YOU feel it would have been justice if Lee and Davis had been hanged for treason after the Civil War? I want YOUR opinion no one else’s.
Legally, yes, they could have been hanged. Would it have been “just?” That’s a matter of subjective opinion. My personal opinion is that, in the interests of healing the wounds and reuniting the nation, it was best to not hang them.
Why don't you retire this silly nonsense of a question. You appear to feeeeeeeel that it is a yuge gotcha but it isn't - it just makes you look even more foolish for asking it.
