16. Guilt

It is not "Southern guilt over slavery and the abuses that prevent me from admitting that", it is the voting record of Southerners at the time, clearly against disunion, clearly against going to war. Apparently irrelevant.

Whether it fits into your preconceived world or not, State Sovereignty was the issue other Southern states joined South Carolina in hostilities against the North.

And don't get me wrong, I'm no fan of slavery or particularly the south (I was never there)
