The topic here is Real Life Villains’. Booth should be moved to Unsung Heroes. Today, there are real life villains, but people support them out of ignorance. People that belong in jail include: George Bush, Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, and Colin Powell. They used lies to get us into an unnecessary war.

You said that killing Lincoln was nothing short of murder regardless of how you look at it, especially considering that the war was pretty much over when he did it.

At least we agree the war was not over. Lincoln was the commander and chief of the military and as such, he was a legitimate target.

There are numerous errors in the article above. I would like to correct one. Booth did not die on April 26, 1865 and the correct date of his birth and death should be:

John Wilkes Booth (May 10, 1838 – January 13, 1903).
