[Non-Sequitur]

Fewer than 20% of the victims had any connection to any military or militia outfit. Quantrill killed them for the sake of killing them. He killed them, sacked their houses and stores, robbed the banks, and burned everything in sight. The only scum there that day was Quantrill and his men and you are defending them, not I.

don't you truly WISH what you posted was the TRUTH. facts are facts.

i'd be curious as to the source of this nonsense you keep posting. even the most radical of the damnyankee apologists and revisionists state that the redlegs,jayhawkers & KS militia members were ALL military members (though they deny the same servicemember status to the CSA partisan rangers!).

even the pro-yankee book, THE DEVIL KNOWS HOW TO RIDE, does NOT dispute that the members of "the kill lists" & COL Quantrell's cavalry were ALL miltary servicemembers of their respective units. face it, N-S, you are AGAIN completely wrong!
