John Brown has always been divisive. Growing up in MA, I was taught that John Brown was a man of principles and conviction. I understand that in other places he's considered more of a terrorist.

I guess that's the problem with moral clarity. When everybody agrees who's in the right, they move on instead of arguing about it and escalating. If escalation is the goal, you need to be divisive more than you need to be right.
