Instead it must be a group of rich and powerful white men (most likely extreme racists in the day) wanting to free a bunch of blacks. Ya ya that must be it...
Some of you people are hilarious. You create some fairy tale world in your brain and have 0 capability of seeing through smoke screens.

I said "possibly", because I am not interested in detailed discussion on all the different reasons for the Civil War. Sure, there may have been many Southerners who fought the war simply because of "States Rights" and were never interested in owning slaves even if they could afford it. There could be other reasons too. That does not take awy from the fatc that slave ownership was a major reason for the civil war. |
