lets do this!!! Well first and foremost the souths states rights were totally trampled. The north and all of its new rules and tarrifs (of abomination) was total discrimination against the south

ok, the slaves was a state right granted by congress earlier. There would have never been slaves without congress consent. 13th ammendment was for morale. That's all

;( the south's rights were being ignored like to two brothers the older one will pick on the littler one until he blows(civil war) IT WAS NOT PREATTY.

okay, so first South was doing its own thing, and then all of a sudden, the North thinks their better than the South!! i mean who does that? South may have had slaves, but so did the North to! and all those rules, law, and taxes agaisn't the South, were really unfair for the South, i mean they didn't even do anything wrong, and the North doing the EXACT SAME THING were against them?

The south were using their slaves for stuff they couldn't do alone. not all were abusing the slaves.

Some people needed slaves to run their plantations, and not all masters treated slaves bad. Some people treated slaves like family for example "Stonewall" Jackson

People should have the same rights as everyone else. People could have maids or people working for them but they should get paid and be treated right ! :)

The north was industrial and didn't need slaves. The south was agricultural and needed them to take care of and harvest the crops

the civil war, is just a lame excuse for the North to go to war against the south

The south thought they were being overpowered because they had more population....So in turn they had more Representatives.

Hitler and the Civil War is totally different. First of all Hitler wanted to RULE the entire world, and thought Jews were horrible, but the Civil war is an EXCUSE

I AM WITH THE SOUTH BECAUSE I THINK THE NORTH IS WRONG WITH PRESERVING ITS UNION. THE SOUTH IS RIGHT FOR WANTING FREE RIGHTS

Jessica it was not an excuse the south thought the North was treading on the Souths rights!

I don't stand for slavery, but I do stand for state rights. The Civil War war was the beginning of a gradual growth of federal power. This has followed us to today. State rights have been virtually forgotten. Abortion can not be banned according to federal law. Obama care is another example. Again, I don't stand for slavery. But I'd rather fight slavery than fight tyranny, which is where we are heading if the gun ban is passed.

THE NORTH WERE THE ONLY REASON WHY WE HAVE BASKETBALL AND STUFF
posted by Marc Garcia | suggest edit
the reason why the Civil War is just a lame excuse(NICK) to go to War is manly because of their economics, and law, and their tariffs. the North didn't like the way that South was handling them self how they just lived, i guess you could say, but the North and the South are exactly the SAME, same slaves, same living quarters, and same rules, well until the Civil War.the North just wanted power or so to say......... etc

I think you should have a whole nation instead of a split
posted by Jacea Tillman | suggest edit
Well nick, what if the laws were for the better, slaves for example, where against the constitution and against GOD!!!
posted by Jacea Tillman | suggest edit
There was no provision in the Constitution that permitted succession so when southern states declared themselves independent they were in violation of that document.

The North used slaves, but not as much as the South, the South used slaves way more than the North.

Lose morals for a little bit and think about the logistics people. seriously

No one should be treated badly! We should all have the same rights. Like , black people shouldnt be treated bad. The south had slaves and the north didnt. For real people .

ok well all of you who think i am unintelligent, go ask my mom what my iq is, she is the only person who knows and she says its pretty high, also, unsmart is not a word

No one should have slaves, especially if they are being treated wrong. Black people are just as equal as us. What if the black were like the white and the white were like the black, would you like it if you were treated like that? I DIDN'T THINK SO
