I'm sorry, but did I mention Lincoln? I believe my statement read, "[the President]". Imbecile. Blither all you like. This is what you said in #836:
Too bad he did not. If he had forced the northern states to obey the Supreme Law, there would have been no reason for the southern states to secede.
Idiot.

Now I know why you have so much trouble with history. You cannot understand what you read. You need to work on that, kid.
Idiot.
Ignorant little kid.

The northern states, and federal officers in the northern states did enforce the fugitive slave law. The Underground railroad was operated by individuals, breaking the law, at risk of their own freedom.
My people were some of those brave souls, who stood up to federal and sometimes state authority for the cause of charity, justice and human liberty.
I hope my people will ever be so courageous.
