The mystery of John Booth

Universally derided, huh?
Sounds pretty bad.

Off the top of my head, assuming John Wilkes Booth, is who is being asked about -

He was on the run for some days. I think he was wounded and assisted by a doctor, whose name was Mud ? And for that assistance the phrase "Your name will be mud" arose, allegedly. The doctor's alibi was that he was just doing his professional duty.

He alluded capture.
He was very disappointed that he did not get more assistance from the Southerners hostile to the Union.

Kind of like John Brown being disappointed that more slaves didn't rise up and join his insurrection at Harper's Ferry.

Anyway, disappointed with their lack of loyalty to the Confederate cause, I think he ended up surrounded in a barn. Wasn't there a shoot out, and John Wilkes Booth was shot dead ?

Apologies for any misstatements of history. This was off the cuff.

What seems always memorable to me is John Wilkes Booth, seemingly (to me) fanatical hatred of Abraham Lincoln. I mean it seems that he hated Lincoln the way Captain Ahab insanely hated Moby Dick the white whale in Melville's novel.

Lincoln must have touched a nerve in John Wilkes Booth that Booth insanely could not endure.

Ask Ghost to direct you to it, he seems to remember it well.

Another dodge.

Is that something like what you mean ?

No, that's not what I mean and you know it.

You claim to be the teacher sonship, if you can't answer that simple spot-on-topic and critical to your pseudo-gospel teachings, then that is a matter for your own Christian integrity.

You seem unusually interested in the life and times of Fetchmybecker sonship.

You believe you and FMFs derision of me is universal. Ok. That's new.

Alternatively you can go look for it yourself.

Well no where near as interested as yourself and FMF aka Johnny boy, going by the number of my posts being responded to.

Alternatively you can shove it.

But you seem unusually interested in deeming that you and two or so like-minded posters, disgusted with a poster, means universal derision.

Are 'you' okay with a fellow poster deliberately misleading other posters?

Nothing to find. You have never given your reasons for deliberately misleading people. (So you can hardly complain when we have to speculate).

If it troubles you then I'll take back the word "universal"; which incidentally was a play on Becker's "universal morality" and which of course went straight over your head.

It doesn't trouble me.
It tickles me.
