The simple fact of the matter is, the north wanted to free the slaves and the south didn't. The civil war was inevitable at that point.Wrong as usual the unprovoked attack on Federal troops at Fort Sumter started the war at that point Lincoln had not even called up the Militia. He was still trying to TALK to the States leaving the Union.The problem with your post is that it's not a fact. Lincoln started the war. Lincoln invaded Virginia.You told him to learn history when he stated a historical fact the South started the war when they fired on the fort. Lincoln hadn't even called up the Militia at that point.Why are you putting words in my mouth that I did not say?
.... The Emancipation Proclamation was a major disappointment to abolitionists everywhere.
No, it wasn’t. Quite the contrary.
