The civil war WASNT about slavery!

Nope, you all were misinformed in school.

It was about state rights.

Slavery was.....id say...7th on the list.

The North didnt care about slavery, THEY had slaves. But the north was more liberal (by todays standards) and slavery was used as the 'main cause' by the north. Im not going to say it was propaganda, but it was to, stir up hatred for the south.

Whats so wrong about state rights, small government, and less of the crap we have today?

AND YES, SLAVERY WAS WRONG! Im just trying to educate the ignorant.
 
I am also aware of the fact that the Civil War was not about slavery, but unfortunately, the liberals have rewritten history to suit their own ideals.

And my grandparents told me is what about cotton trade. The North was demanding cotton and paying very little for it. So we said no, and then the war happened.
 
That's why the Emancipation Proclamation only freed those slaves who were NOT under Federal control. All the slaves in Union states or in areas already captured by Union forces were still slaves.
 
I t was about states' rights, and a slave-based economy that the south had. According to the museum in Gettysburg, slavery did play a large part in alienating the south from the north. And the south wanted expansion of slavery into the west, the north did not support that.
 
"states rights", huh?

and what "right" did they try to exercise because they were afraid the north was eventually going to phase out slavery?

secession.


you fail. return to kindergarten.
