Why did Dred Scott feel he should be a free man?
Dred Scott believed he should be a free man because he had lived in free territories where slavery was prohibited, specifically Illinois and Wisconsin, with his owner. He argued that his residence in these free areas gave him the right to claim his freedom. Additionally, Scott contended that since he was a person and not merely property, he should be entitled to legal rights and protections under the law. His case ultimately led to the landmark Supreme Court decision in 1857, which denied his claim and stated that African Americans could not be considered citizens.

Did the supreme court ruling in dred Scott v Sanford make a civil war inevitable?
No. The decision outraged abolitionists, but abolitionists were only a very, very small percentage of the northern (and southern) population. Most people could not possibly have cared less about the fate of a single slave, or of any number of slaves. Do you get all worked up and want to go to war when the Court decides a case in a way you feel is unjust to one of the parties? Neither did people back then.
