>Asking that his hands be raised to his face so that he could see them, Booth uttered his last words, "Useless, useless", and as dawn was breaking he died of asphyxiation as a result of his woundsGenuinely and unironically, what the fuck was his problem?
>>18292581Was originally going to kidnap Lincoln and try to use him as a bargaining chip for the Confederacy. He watched Lincolns last speech where he mentioned giving black veterans the right to vote. He told bystanders in the crowd "Why, that means nigger citizenship! Oh, that is the last speech he will EVER make!" and the plan changed to assassination.The troops who tracked him down were given explicit orders to bring him in alive. However, a literal schizo among their ranks (who had castrated himself with scissors to avoid "ungodly temptations") Boston Corbitt shot him anyway, saying providence had directed him to do so. His final words were just him being a drama queen, just like his leaping from the presidential box onto the stage after shooting Lincoln and screaming "SIC SEMPER TYRANNUS! THE SOUTH IS AVENGED!" was as well. He was an actor after all.

>>18292627I mean, Southerners also fought in favor of keeping niggers in America.
>>18292631The Republicans should’ve sent them back to Africa as was the plan.
He was just a peak theater kid in a time when he did not have social media as an outlet.
>>18292631burn the south again for buying and breeding them. nobody forced those dumbasses to do business with jewish merchants
>>18292627It was a tiny derringer. The bullet would've impacted him like a sledgehammer to the back of the head but it actually lodged in his head and he lived for some hours after, albeit unconscious. Some theorize he possibly could've lived or at least lived longer had the quack doctors of the day not probed around in his head with their filthy instruments for hours trying to remove the ball.
>>18292594>However, a literal schizo among their ranks (who had castrated himself with scissors to avoid "ungodly temptations") Boston CorbittHis schizosim continued after the war too. He was unable to hold any job because he had a compulsion to just randomly stop working and start fervently praying for his coworkers or whoever was around, and had troubles capitalizing on his fame because his behavior in public speeches was so intense, erratic and unpredictable that nobody wanted to associate with him. He later became paranoid about being targeted by a conspiracy all the way from Washington. He was eventually thrown into an asylum after being given a doorkeeper job out of pity in Kansas House of Representatives, but one day he suffered a total breakdown and started chasing officials out of the building brandishing his revolver. He escaped the asylum later and disappeared.
>>18292662>nobody forced those dumbasses to do business with jewish merchantsThey weren't Jewish though.
>>18292594>who had castrated himself with scissors to avoid "ungodly temptations"Based. Absolutely, unfathomably based. This is exactly what Jesus commanded you to do.
>>18293015Booth carried several photos of actresses on his person at the time of his death, it is just natural that a gooner would be defeated by an anti-gooner.
