Where can one piss on their graves?

Other than Jefferson Davis, who was let off scott-free.
And that's before we get into Johnson's "I'm the new Confederate President" behavior immediately after the assassination.

According to the film Mary's crime was that the conspirators used her boarding home to meet and create the plan without her knowledge. They hanged her as a conspirator with the others. Don't know how accurate the film was, but seems like she was hung just to help satisfy the nations need of a scape goat

Which film? The DDL Lincoln?

Man they sure dont treat conspirators like they used to. Especially ones who destabilize government.
Not the death penalty's biggest fan, but I'll admit to a little bit of nostalgia on that particular point.
It gets tricky there doesn't it?
I am against the death penalty.
This person commited treason against a just government.
I agree with your reply, it still leaves me conflicted though.
