    Freeing enslaved people could make the Civil War worse

    Explanation:

    The 13th Amendment of the US Constitution establishes the abolishment of slavery and involuntary servitude. Though slavery was abolished by Abraham Lincoln in the 1863 Emancipation Proclamation; it was not official until after the Civil War when the 1865 Reconstruction Amendments were adopted. The counterclaim that some people had against the passing of this amendment was that it would create more trouble and conflict between the North and the South, making the Civil War even worse.
