"I'm not _opposed_ to freed slaves; I'm opposed to _illegally_ freed slaves. Slaves should only be freed through proper legal channels.
To allow some slaves to escape, and bypass the slavery emancipation process is not fair to the slaves who played by the rules, worked hard, and saved up enough money to purchase their freedom.
We're a nation of laws, and we cannot reward those who flout our laws. It's unjust to apply our slave laws unequally. If they don't like the slave laws, the slaves should change the law. "
