Best Answer

The failed rebellion by John Brown horrified the South, who feared that this was the real face of Abolitionism - perhaps a far more violent movement than its church-style dialogue was meant to suggest.

In the North, the Abolitionists regarded Brown as a hero-martyr. And this was just the kind of over-heated debate that made war inevitable.
