The Fugitive Slave Act was an act that encouraged and legalized the murder of run away slaves. 

Southern Plantation owners strived off of their slaves, they depended on them.

Free African Americans obviously would not support the killing of slaves. 

Abolitionist was groups of people who supported the end of slavery.

Northern factory owners did not have a say in the matter, as the North was much more technologically advance and did not depend on slaves.

Now that you know the definition of the Fugitive Slave act, and the different choices -- which one sounds most correct to you?
