I certainly agree; we foolishly and needlessly sacrificed many American lives in that struggle. Again, we need only look at England or France, each with their own history of slavery, and race relations in both countries are far better than our own.

Neither England or France had a large section of their country willing to launch a rebellion to protect against what they saw as threats to their institution of slavery. The U.S. did.

One half of their country, (England & France),also wasn't dependent on slavery for their agricultural needs, etc.
