    Thank you for diverging from that sharecropper dipshit!

    I would mention how the American West was a constant battleground, as shown with Saint John Brown.

    You are absolutely correct that while Lincoln was an abolitionist, he said he wasn’t willing to risk the Union over the “issue”. Yet despite the claimed class solidarity between the North and South propertied, the South still became traitors as soon as Lincoln was elected.
