If you are, as you apparently have been, defending the slave south, then apparently you are in favor of slavery. Calhoun was. Fitzhugh was. Jeff Davis was.

Moreover, all of them, contrary to Lincoln, thought slavery should be expanded. Now, stop your "this is slanderous" whining and state clearly that you oppose slavery; that the South was wrong; and that Lincoln was right, and all will be well.

One can be totally opposed to slavery (including Lincoln's enslavement of the people of the Confederacy) without believing that the South did not have the right to secede or that Lincoln was right to attempt to suppress that secession.

Not to recognize that is indicative of a serious incapacity for logical thought on your part. Your attempt to justify your vicious slander is based on an absurd fallacy.
