2.During Reconstruction there was great debate over whether the South should be granted amnesty. What are your thoughts? Defend your argument

The south should've been granted amnesty because all the people that were hurt.Also even though the republicans were angry because the confederate members were allowed to stay in congress doesnt mean they shouldnt of been able to be granted amnesty.When Lincoln had a plan for the reconstruction one of his plans was to grant the south amnesty,replace the loyal rule in the south.And he was going to take someone out of jail.
