I've read one account that claims he locked up 38,000 people, including arresting a Federal Judge, issuing an arrest warrant for the Chief Justice of the Supreme court, and having a Congressman arrested for making speeches critical of Lincoln.

You read a lot of things, few of which seem to be true. Maybe you need to focus on facts and not Confederate revisionist websites?

You just don't like it when the things I tell you turn out to be true.

So your source says "as high as 38,000 people" and you say he locked up 38,000 people. Not "an estimated 38,000 people". Not "as many as 38,000 people". But a flat 38,000. Never mind that figure has been discounted by people like Mark Neely, Jr. who wrote a Pulitzer-prize winning study on the subject, Fate of Liberty; Abraham Lincoln and Civil Liberties. No, you stumbled across it and you will continue to push it out there as if it were in controvertible fact. Because you have no interest in fact, just your agenda.
