No causation there, nigger lover.

Prigg v. Pennsylvania could easily be called the worst Supreme Court decision ever issued. The human tragedy of the decision is breathtaking. In an opinion by Justice Story, the Court reversed the criminal prosecution of a slave catcher who had kidnapped and sold into slavery a woman, Margaret Morgan, who likely was not a fugitive slave, and her two child-ren, who assuredly were not. The Court’s holding was that the Fugitive Slave Clause prohibited states from subjecting slave catchers to a state-sanctioned civil process, except to prevent “breach of the peace, or any il-legal violence.” Under the logic of the opinion, however, the kidnapping could not itself be outlawed as “illegal violence.” Put otherwise, violence against blacks was “legal” violence; “illegal” violence was violence against whites. The decision abided the constant threat of enslavement expe-rienced by free brown-skinned Americans in both the North and the South. By constitutionally forbidding states from preventing private vi-olence against blacks, Prigg worked a simultaneous assault on due process in which Justice Joseph Story, for the majority of the Court: a. held that the Constitution gave slave owners a right of “self-help repossession” to snatch back anyone they deemed to be a fugitive slave; b. upheld as an implied power of Congress its ability to pass the Fugitive Slave Law of 1793; and c. struck down as preempted by the 1793 statute Pennsylva-nia’s “personal liberty” law that at least would have required slave owners (or slave catchers, like Prigg) to go before a state court before taking the alleged fugitive — and, as in the actual case, children who under no plausible theory could be deemed slaves at all — out of the ostensibly free state and back to a slave state.

And I further suspect that the narrative pushed in schools that blacks were dehumanized and abused by their masters was likely true in a vast minority of cases.

I suspect most American slave owners treated slaves well
