What was abolitionist john brown accused of?
John Brown was hanged Dec 2nd, 1859, for treason against the State of Virginia. John Brown, and his sons, and followers, once hacked 5 pro-slavery men to death with broad swords. All in the name of defeating Satan and his legions. Future, Confederate/ Rebel/ Southern/ General, Robert E. Lee, led the capture of John Brown, after Brown, his sons, and followers, armed with guns and rifles, tookover a building and held hostages. Brown was severely wounded and his sons killed. He was called the Meteor of the Civil War. Some likened him to Christ. Others thought, never was a man more justly hanged. John Brown once stood up in church and raised his right hand and vowed before God and man that he was from that day forward dedicating his life to the "destruction" of slavery. "Destruction" was exactly what he intended. Perhaps John Brown should have taken to heart what Christ commanded Saint Peter at Christ's arrest when Christ shouted to Peter, "Put your sword back in its place!"
