This is nothing new. Anyone who has read anything about the War for Southern Independence knows that President Jefferson Davis had a plan to arm slaves.
Also, the North encouraged slaves to revolt and kill their masters. That's what the Emancipation Proclamation was all about.

This is nothing new. Anyone who has read anything about the War for Southern Independence knows that President Jefferson Davis had a plan to arm slaves. Then how come he did not execute it, since supposedly slavery had nothing to do with the war and there were already tens of thousands of slaves fighting unofficially for the Confederacy? BTW, I wonder if these tens of thousands of blacks serving in the Confederate army actually existed why that why wasn't that the primary argument for arming slaves?
