LOL. I simply called you on one of your overstatements.

Show that in the record.
Baxter Springs, Kansas - 10/6/63 - William Quantrill and Bloody Bill Anderson at their finest. Anderson's men attacked a group of about 90 USCT attached to the 3rd Wisconsin Cavalry, preparing lunch near their fort at Baxter Springs. As the men were unarmed, they broke and ran for the safety of the fort nearby. Anderson's men rode them down and shot them.
Meanwhile, Quantrill road out of the woods, his men wearing captured Union uniforms, and tricked a Union General into thinking they were an honor guard sent from Baxter Springs to escort his wagon train. Instead, the men manning the wagon train, including a band, were executed, most of them found shot in the head.
Centralia, Missouri - 9/27/64 - Bloody Bill Anderson murders 24 of 25 unarmed Union soldiers on furlough. Then ambushes and kills a detachment of the 39th Missouri Infantry outside of town, followed by an assault on the rest of the regiment at Centralia itself, murdering all of the remainder.
Fort Pillow, Tennessee - 4/12/64
2-300 Union POW's executed
Poison Springs, Arkansas - 4/18/64 - massacre of the 4th Kansas Colored Militia.
Saltville, Virginia - 10/2/64 - Champ Ferguson and Brigadier General Felix Robertson executed over 100 wounded members of the 5th USCT Cavalry, the morning after the battle there. (They essentially drove their wagons across the fields where the wounded USCT were, crushing them under their wheels.) While Ferguson was captured some months later, and tried and executed for this (and other) crimes, Robertson lived until 1928, the last surviving Confederate general.
There's a lot more.
I'd be glad for you to cite an incident where Union troops shot rebel troops out of hand in this manner.
