Abolitionist, terrorist, and mass murderer John Brown incites the Civil War at Harper’s Ferry in 1859
H/T VDARE
The Derb makes an excellent point about Charleston shooter Dylann Roof who wanted to incite a “civil war”: in 1859, the abolitionist fanatic and terrorist John Brown succeeded in creating so much polarization and ill will between the North and South that he successfully “divided America.” Brown’s terrorist attack on Harper’s Ferry in 1859, its reception in the North, and the atmosphere of suspicion and paranoia in the South it created was the single most important factor in breaking the Union.
