Why do the racist MI protesters need to be armed?

Like I mentioned earlier, slavery was already on its way out during the time due to industrialization, as well as being hugely unpopular since the start.
The Union could have bought the slaves, set them free, and that would have been the end of it.

The south found the very mention of abolition to be offensive. They even effected a gag order in Congress.

That, and the South cited slavery as the reason for secession in their formal secession documents.

Because slavery was a significant stares rights issue as evidenced by all the language in constitutional compromise etc.
 
Another absurd suggestion on your part. Am I smarter than idiots parading around with guns, Confederate and Don’t Tread On Me flags on their beat up pickups, in close proximity to each other at a supposedly anti-lockdown rally? Unmasked? You bet your sweet ass I am!

You are giving them what they want by talking about them--more attention. Why not just keep those feelings to yourself rather than spew hate on the internet?

:rofl2:

Looking at the crowd, do you really think those morons look any further than WND, Stormfront or Fox? That’s giving them the benefit of the doubt if they’re literate at all.
 
The practice was already decreasing and becoming even more unpopular. I can't honestly say how much longer it would have lasted if this or that didn't happen, but it was definitely on its way out.

100'000 of thousands were freed long before the South ever would have freed them.
Rich whites would have fought to keep slaves into the 20th century

Too bad there is no such thing as state's rights. Frankly, more has been said about the false doctrine by neo-Confederate apologists than was actually said by real Confederates at the time. Likely a result of them never seeing the need to equivocate about the morality of slavery or the principles of the Declaration. This was a people who feared that the purity of the white race was at stake (even though they constantly raped their black slaves, thus participating in the process of "miscegenation").

You really should try reading the constitution.

So, the people who brought in Black slaves were so uber racist, that they brought Blacks into the country?

They certainly aren't White Separatists, that's for sure.

More like Capitalist scumbags.
