The Kansas-Nebraska Act gave voters in those territories to either have their states be free of slavery or allow it. Kansas had a long border with slave state Missouri. There were strong feelings on each side of the slavery issue. Lack of law enforcement and high tensions among the people cause terrible violence to occur.
