Fugitive Slave Act, 1850.
slaves rebelled by stealing the owners weapons etc..
Slaves were branded as a form of permanent identification by their owners to signify ownership and discourage escape. It was also a way for slave owners to easily identify their slaves if they were found or caught trying to escape. Branding was a dehumanizing and oppressive practice that reinforced the concept of slavery as a legal and economic institution.
Really mad. They were desperate to get there slaves back so they contacted the government, but they couldn't help.
The owners won, but the slaves came back and killed them.
The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 required all citizens to assist in the capture and return of runaway slaves. It imposed penalties on those who aided fugitive slaves and required law enforcement to actively pursue escapees.
Slave owners were worried about rebellion because they depended on the labor of enslaved people for their economic livelihood. Large-scale uprisings could threaten their power and control, as well as disrupt the social order they benefited from. They feared losing their property and facing violent retaliation if enslaved people were to revolt.
Slaves were owned by anyone who could afford one. Slaves were owned to work on palntation, they were used at home as servants, in armies as soldiers, house guards, females were used to be raped sometimes, they were used by home owners to work and bring back wages to owners. whatever the reason was, slaves were mostly used for economic reasons
It declared that all runaway slaves be brought back to their "owners" after many had fled to the North.
The Fugitive Slave Law of 1850 was part of the Compromise of 1850 and aimed to provide slaveholders with a legal mechanism to capture and return escaped slaves. It required free states to assist in the capture and return of fugitive slaves, leading to heightened tensions between abolitionists and pro-slavery factions.

To put it simply, back in the time of slaves, the slaves weren't viewed as people, but rather a beast of burden, like a horse or a mule. Now, we know better. Hopefully....
Property to slave owners usually on plantations where they normally worked on growing crops and doing back breaking work.
