No doubt.

Really? Do we have major public figures arguing that our fellows should be cast into bondage for life and whipped just because of their race? Who are these fools?

are you really dumb enough to believe that TWBTS was about slavery???? most traditional scholars would (as i do) ridicule you for making that assertion.

fwiw, it was ONLY about LIBERTY & freedom from a faraway central government that southerners believed (rightly!) was likely to become evermore intrusive into their lives.

face it, "blam", you've been lied to & made a fool of. (you really should go do some serious reading of the period documents.)
