John Brown's immediate plan was to " strike terror in the hearts of the proslavery people." Then eventually he, his four sons, and two other men went to the Pottawatomie Creek, where they seized and killed 5 supporters of slavery.
The vicious murderer John Brown was a radical abolitionists from New England. He hated slavery as did most of the abolitionists. Most Americans did not favor slavery either, however, unlike Brown they would not become killers in order to end it. After the 1854 Kansas-Nebraska Act was passed, the issue of slavery in the new US Territories, Kansas and Nebraska in particular, allowed for the citizens to vote on the issue of slavery before applying for statehood. In Kansas there was armed conflict between pro and anti-slavery people. John Brown and his sons travelled to Kansas to make a case for anti-slavery. They decided to kill any settlers there in favor of slavery. This they did in a horrible way. Somehow Brown and his sons escaped prosecution for their crimes. Their terrorist actions resurfaced in Harper's Ferry in Virginia in 1859. There Brown and his sons took over a federal arms depot and tried to start a slave rebellion. The goal was to free slaves and strike fear into the hearts of pro-slavery people. The rebellion failed and Brown was hanged for treason in 1859.
800 slavery supporters attacked the town of Lawrence in Kansas, a stronghold of antislavery settlers. The attackers burned the Free State Hotel and destroyed two newspaper offices and many homes. Soon after, antislavery forces retaliated. John Brown,a fervent abolitionist, believed God chose hom to end slavery. The attck on Lawrence enraged Brown. he vowed to "Strike terror in the hearts of the pro-slavery people." One night Brown led a a group along Pottawatomie Creek where he seized and killed five supporters of slavery.
Fire in the Sky was a movie (1993) centered around alien abductions. The "fire" in this case would describe the alien light, used to strike terror into peoples hearts.
John Brown, an American abolitionist, made this statement as he believed in using aggressive tactics to fight against pro-slavery advocates and the institution of slavery. Brown led a raid on the federal armory at Harpers Ferry in 1859 in an attempt to start a slave rebellion.
"Criminals are a superstitious, cowardly lot, so my disguise must be able to strike terror into their hearts. I must be a creature of the night, black, terrible..." Bruce Wayne from Detective Comics #33 (Nov. 1939)
