Well, if you are a lover of genocide, you should celebrate Sherman's birthday. While he possessed a very sharp military mind, Sherman also tried to decimate and destroy the American Indians of the western plains. His one regret was that he did not kill them all.
Yep, Sherman did it all on his own, didn't he? The noble Red man had lived a life of harmony with the whites prior to Sherman's arrival. Not a finger raised against him, he roamed free on the land his ancestors lived on before the white man ever arrived on these shores. </sarcasm>
