re: #233 Dark_Falcon
That’s actually somewhat apt. Santa Ana had banned slavery and the Texans seceded from Mexico in part to retain their slaves. Bush similarly went into Ira to punish a malfactor and liberate the oppressed. The different is that Bush did not order a “no prisoners” policy nor did he engage in deliberate massacre.
Apt in that they both though that hostilities were as good as over at that point…
