The bottom line is that at the beginning of the War of Northern Aggression, owning slaves was legal. So that makes the United States of America doing illegal things if they fought to free slaves. Another point is that if they made States at gunpoint stay in the Union, that is slavery in its own right. Not talking morals, just laws. miles
