“The government of slavery was not a rule of law. It was a rule of police.”
“Negroes and Slaves” were “wholly unqualified to be governed by the Laws . . . of our Nations,” and devised, instead, a special set of rules “for the good Regulating and Ordering of them.”

>Women lose all agency (=Slaves)
>Bounties on ALL who help them
>(Inevitable) Violence is rewarded
South STILL LOVES #SlaveCodes
