The old unwritten rule; either for or against.
The Gag Rule of the mid-1830s was a congressional rule that prohibited the discussion or consideration of antislavery petitions in the U.S. House of Representatives. Implemented in response to a surge of petitions advocating for the abolition of slavery, it aimed to suppress debate on the contentious issue of slavery and maintain order within Congress. The rule was seen as a means to appease pro-slavery interests and avoid conflict, but it ultimately fueled abolitionist sentiment and resistance. It was eventually repealed in 1844, marking a significant moment in the struggle against slavery in America.
Loyalists were on the British side and did not want to break away from the british land. So there for no they did not support independence.
People supported Owain Glyndwr because he represented a strong resistance against English rule in Wales. He was seen as a champion of Welsh independence and cultural identity. Additionally, he promised to improve the socio-economic conditions of the Welsh people, which gained him further support.

A law that prohibited the debate and discussion of slavery in Congress.
The gag rule, implemented in the U.S. House of Representatives in the 1830s, prohibited the discussion of antislavery petitions, effectively stifling debate on the issue. John Quincy Adams, a staunch opponent of slavery, viewed this rule as a direct affront to free speech and democracy. Despite the gag rule, he persistently presented antislavery petitions, using them as a platform to highlight the moral imperative against slavery and to rally public support. Adams's efforts ultimately contributed to raising awareness and setting the stage for the broader abolitionist movement.
