So why is Brown getting the blame when it's the pro-slavery side who started the violence and murders?
Joshua Evans-Lowell
One can debate whether Brown's tactics did more harm than good but it's really hard to argue that it's morally wrong to counter slavery and pro-slavery violence with violent tactics in a country that was founded in a terrorist insurrection and near-decade war over the technicalities of tax and trade law.

The Caning of Charles Sumner is sometimes portrayed as a kinda comic event but the dude nearly died
Martin Verran
