Slaveowners in the North

Well we all know this couldn't be true. The statists here on FR and the infinitely wise over at the Claremont Institute know much more than silly old facts

Some states did take action, enacting bans one by one, so that by 1863 the practice was illegal in most of the North.

Notice most, and considering that many of the states that had banned slavery didn't even allow blacks to live in their borders such as Oregon and lincoln's home state Illinois

And, those rumors that some of slaves were of European-American descent??? This internet is crazy...

Ff--150, now don't get upset. Everyone knows that all the 'valid' information comes from AOL chat sites. Well that and the World Socialist Web Site. That's where James McPherson gives us a three part interview on the 'real' causes of the war

Now can someone tell me again why we're supposed to listen to anything McPhernut has to say?
