Brown's treasonous raid on Harper's Ferry. They attacked a federal outpost to get guns to give to slaves to murder white people in slave holding states. The rest of the people involved were killed or hanged. Robert E. Lee retook the armory.

If the South won the war then maybe. I don’t think this is a great take. Technically correct give the laws back then; however, a fugitive slave trying to free other slaves will always be the way she’s judged in history.

If we were occupied by another power and you wanted the invaders expelled - you would use guerrilla (terrorist) tactics to win.

One sides terrorists is the other sides' patriots. It's that simple.

I think since slavery is an atrocious thing she would be a hero in my book. It depends on the gist of the matter. Would you consider the Union army as terrorists since they were fighting the South who wanted to keep slavery?

Ever wonder where the terms "Right" and "Left" came from?

Ecclesiastes 10:2 "The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of a fool to the left".

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I'd rather hear that than a bird needs two wings to fly.
