Then K-Stater said: Then why didn't the Southern states just end it, as the Northern states did? What was stopping them?
Tater, you know as well as I do that the Northern states didn't end it for humanitarian reasons. They sold the slaves South instead of freeing them.
We're talking about the claim that the North forced slavery on the South. If it was involuntarily forced down their throats then why didn't the South say 'enough' and end it? They had that right. Why didn't they?
