At the time of the American Revolution, and indeed, during the ratification of the US Constitution, all the Northern states were also slave states...

But we never hear about how those vile slave states overthrew their lawful government in preference for one of their own. For some reason, a lot of people just don't notice the hypocrisy involved.

Guess we need to start repudiating Pres. Jefferson since he had a bunch of slaves and didn’t even free all of them - some of which were his children or close relatives - on his death.
