I can not imagine that any thoughtful person in the North or South approved of what went on in Kansas or thought in hind-sight that the idea of letting the people vote on slavery was a good idea. The abolitionists who moved to Kansas with the sole intent of voting against slavery were mostly from the North and probably thought they doing something noble and heroic. The pro-slavery people who came up from Missouri to disrupt the election were no doubt considered to be the ones to blame for the bloodshed .

The Northern view of Bleeding Kansas was largely one of condemnation and concern over the violent conflict between pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions in the Kansas Territory during the mid-1850s. Many Northerners saw it as a dire consequence of the South's attempts to expand slavery into new territories, which they opposed.
