It's simple, billbears. Only one, count em, ONE group of people were willing to go to war to defend slavery.

You know, I'll even give you that some, I said some, of the deep Southern states might have gone to war to defend slavery, but that's mighty thin considering that good ol' abe said himself he didn't have the right to do anything about it. But that still doesn't cover the border and upper Southern states does it? Two wrongs don't make a right, Non. If the South seceded for plain vs peanut M&Ms, they still had the right to secede. And abe didn't have the right to do anything about it
