[QUOTE="bellesotico, post: 549747, member: 15614"] [b]Re: what would you do[/b] Well stated Danny. It is interesting how many people believe the Civil War was fought to free the slaves. The Civil War was the result of a heated debate over states rights. Think John C. Calhoun, the Virginia and Kentucky resolutions (1798) with regard to state interposition, and the issue of nullification. In a nutshell, there were serious arguments that the federal government should not be allowed to execute law within the state. The issue of slavery was economical. The South's economy relied heavily on slavery, and the belief was that it's dissolution would cause tyranny. [/QUOTE]
