Their concept of self rule was to deny self rule to US states which did not permit slavery, to the US government which was a union of the people which preceded the US constitution, and to steal US property and imprison US citizens who did not support slavery.
“Their concept of self rule was to deny self rule to US states which did not permit slavery,”
Nonsense.
“to the US government which was a union of the people which preceded the US constitution,”
Utter nonsense.
“and to steal US property and imprison US citizens who did not support slavery.”
Time for meds.
