Slavery was set to end anyway. It was just a matter of time. Most people just couldn't stomach the idea any longer. And of course as most of us feel today, it was a sick idea. But the civil war had nothing to do with it. The politicians of the day were trying to figure out what to do with the niggers. Years before the civil war even started they sent any and all niggers that would freely go to what is now Liberia. The nigs named the capital 'Monrovia' to honor the president who sent them - 'James Monroe.' Since they were being sent away, the niggers still in the US now feared all of the could and would be expelled from the US. And Congress was wanting to do just that - repatriate them back to somewhere. Anywhere other than the US. There were many court cases because of that. The most famous one being the Dred Scot case. In which Scott argued that the nigga's should be considered as US citizens and protected under the constitution. The rest is common history, we have millions of niggers strutting our streets. But, again, the civil war was NOT about niggers!
