Almost everybody.
It started with the popular but uneducated optimist Stephen Douglas, who got a lot of support for his simple solution to the slavery debate - let each new state vote whether to be slave or free.
He didn't realise that if only one state voted at a time, this would act as a magnet for every terrorist from both sides to descend on that one thinly-populated area, to intimidate voters and try to get the ballots declared rigged.
The result was called Bleeding Kansas.
