[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So much ignorance here. It wasn't about slavery. Enjoy being brainwashed![/quote] You were the one brainwashed by your VA textbooks. The rest of us have critical thinking skills. It was about preserving the Southern economy, and protecting the rights of wealthy property owners. Not coincidentally, both things were dependent upon chattel slavery. So yes, it was about state's rights to self-govern and individual's rights to own other human beings as property, aka, it was about slavery. [/quote]
