Lincoln didn’t start a war to further, extend, and protect the evil that was slavery.
Lincoln didn’t unconstitutionally interfere with state internal policies absent an insurrection.
The insurrection was unconstitutional, and was begun to further and extend the evil that was slavery. Sorry that you think evil is really complex. It really is very simple.
“insurrection was unconstitutional”
Yet the northern States committed insurrection by waging a war to end slavery instead of changing the Constitution.
The southern States were attacked by the northern States to end slavery according to you. Instead of the northern States changing the law through a Constitutional amendment they simply attacked South Carolina as a first act of war against the southern States. Every one of your bigots claim the south could not succeed and therefore did not, there fore the southern States were part of the union that the northern States attacked to end slavery.

Arresting the Legislature of Maryland was not interfering with internal state policies absent an insurrection? Was Maryland having an insurrection then? First i've heard of it.
The insurrection was unconstitutional, and was begun to further and extend the evil that was slavery.
So if the insurrection had been for something that wasn't evil, then it would have been okay? You know, like the Riots in New York and Boston to protest impressment?
Isn't forcing men to fight in a conflict against their will a sort of slavery? Is it okay when Lincoln does it?
I'm getting mixed messages on this "evil of slavery" argument.
