Slavery was not the important issue to Lincoln—power and control over the lives of others were issues that drove him. I’m a tax slave myself and I don’t like it. If we put the 650000 young boys ordered to death by this tyrant in the perspective of today’s population, I don’t support sending 6.5 million boys to kill each other for the aggrandizement of some power-infested politician. I place no greater value on Lincoln’s life than I do any of some of those 15 and 16 year kids that were enslaved to kill each other. No mans life is worth more than another.

You know this because - you meet him at a seance or something?
