To defend the port from outside attack.
How would they do that? I guess they could threaten to sink the ships, but not collect money from the ships.
Well it suffices to say, the fort never fired or threatened any ships. You are stating nonsense.

fuck your legal standing.
Most of the abolitionists were of the 'Ship them all back to Africa' types, as was Lincoln himself, white nationalists. They didn't want any blacks at all moving north or in the new territories. I posted on the Black Codes in the Midwest passed in the 1850's, including Lincoln's home state and his own role in some of the legislation. The only real abolitionists in the Republican Party was Seward and a few of his faction, and he was opposed to the starting the war. The only one in Lincoln's entire Cabinet who was pro-war was his Post master General.
There wasn't much of Left in this country, until after the Civil War and the abused of the robber barons and their private armies took over the country. Republicans created it with their sociopaths attitudes towards small business and labor. They didn't like competition at all, and worked hard to crush it and stomp on its grave.

the civil war was a little bit about slavery.
No, they weren't. In fact Lincoln almost lost his control of the Party in the mid-terrms, because northern people thought he was going to turn it into a war over slavery, not just maintain the Union. He had his own private army embedded in the Union army, and had some 75,000 troops of his own, which he used to control the ballot boxes in the border states and some in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York City. They used bayonets and arrests to keep opponents from voting, along with stuffing the boxes with soldiers' votes.

Only because Lincoln needed a the slim margin he needed to keep power.
If they cared about 'slavery n stuff' they would been voting on it Congress instead of passing all kinds of legislation on railroads, tariffs, and homestead scams for four years. The Quakers were the only major denomination that opposed slavery.

So am I. Most considered blacks to be sub-humans and condemned to be slaves forever, or they didn't want them here at all. Many were also anarchists.

Never said it wasn't, it just wasn't a cause of the war; Lincoln and his American System corporate welfare agenda was.

As I've said before, real history isn't kind to most of humanity. Lying about it and making up fantasies to fit ideologies doesn't help anything an d only makes real reforms impossible in th elong run.
This guy sums it up pretty well:
And here is what bothers me so much about modern "scholarship." At what point did history become ethics? Why should we subvert the elusive search for facts to moralist concerns? So what if they are on or off the hook? If you want to be a preacher, go preach. If you want to save the world, go into politics. If you want to invent a world free of evil, take prozac. It was said in Ecclesiastes and it still is true today,people suck. They did then, all of them. They do now, all of us.History is the history of self-interested, competing, aggressive,selfish, murderous humans. At what point did it become a morality play?

Obviously most people need the Prozac.

It seems as if everyone—except his racist supporters—are recognizing the obvious: Donald Trump is a racist. But racism extends far past Trump and his voting band of angry Americans. The growing recognition of Trump’s racism must rouse a growing recognition of racist ideas wherever they are found...

the death of the democrat party has got Edwin all in a tizzy trying to besmirch the republicans party.
he's going way back.
it's true, parties are not the point.
but lincolns realpolitik made him side with the good people this time.
and that's a good thing.
and the good actually mattered.
