Some of the arguments that pro slavery southerners used were that abolitionists only wanted to free enslaved workers so that they could work in northern factories, where they would get paid low wages, would have to pay for food and shelter, and where it was dangerous.
Southern responses to John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry in 1859 were largely characterized by fear and anger, viewing it as a direct attack on their way of life and a threat to slavery. They intensified their calls for stronger slave patrols and defensive measures. Northerners were more divided; some abolitionists hailed Brown as a martyr for the anti-slavery cause, while others condemned his violent methods and feared it would escalate tensions between the North and South. Overall, the raid deepened the sectional divide and heightened the sense of impending conflict.

American youth have shown a range of responses to war, often influenced by social, political, and cultural contexts.

Northern states had a completely different attitude towards slavery and race equality. Abolition campaign was very strong in the north and had the support of political and religious leaders. North had become an industrialized and urbanized region with little dependence on agriculture, where slaves were largely utilized. Slavery was viewed negatively in north and by 1840 almost the entire African American populace in north was free. In a total contrast, southern states' economy depended on plantation agriculture where slavery was a vital part of society. The attitude of southerners was pro slavery and after the election victory of Abraham Lincoln, slave states decided to secede from the union as they feared a end of slavery under pro-abolition Lincoln.

Arguments for innate behavior include the idea that certain actions are hardwired and essential for survival, such as instinctual responses in animals. This perspective emphasizes the efficiency of these behaviors in ensuring reproductive success and species continuity. Conversely, arguments against innate behavior highlight the role of learning and environmental influences, suggesting that many behaviors are adaptable and shaped by experience. Critics argue that reliance on innate behavior underestimates the complexities of behavioral development and the impact of social and cultural factors.
