This flies in direct opposition to "Sharecropper's Debt" laws, which say if someone leaves a state while in debt, they can be arrested, imprisoned, or sent back to the state they initially left.
THE UNION IS CREATING A LAW
WHICH SAYS IF A PERSON LEAVES
A STATE, THEY ARE EXEMPT
FROM THAT STATE'S LAWS,
SO A SLAVE BECOMES FREE. SO IF SOMEONE KILLS YOUR
WIFE IN OHIO, THEY CAN RUN
TO ILLINOIS AND AVOID BEING
PROSECUTED? YOU'VE JUST
OVERTURNED STATES RIGHTS.
