Oh, but that's not the case. In fact that's often exactly how blacks were sold into slavery. When 2 african villages went at it, the victor sold the losers into slavery.... That is most frequently how blacks became slaves.
Quote from OPTIONAL777:
The blacks weren't sold into slavery as a punishment for a failed rebellion...
I just think that if Lincoln had properly punished and let the necks know that their confederate thinking would be severely punished...we would not see the same type of thinking alive today in the south.
