Does the poet think john brown was a hero or a criminal? how do you know?

John Brown had a brilliant vision for an america without slavery. i think its fair to say that he wanted what was best for the black population that had, figuartively speaking, no voice. however, he was a criminal. he killed many people with his revolt at harpers ferry, even if his reasoning was justified. as the saying goes, "two wrongs dont make a right." though john brown had maybe good intentions, his radical and "crazy" ways of getting what he believed was wrong. people then could not have possibly taken him seriously. this is kind of like the modern example of abortion clinic bombers...these people have a message that they want people to recognise. however, the fact that they are willing to sacrifice many more lives with bombings comes to show that they are hypocritical and will not be able to justify their beliefs through this path. had john brown not killed in order to free slaves, his oppinion may have been heard by others and been seen today as a hero, like abraham lincoln or martin luther king jr. but the fact that he chose to use violence makes him a likely canidate to be seen as a criminal, even today. had he gone about this in another fassion, he would be seen with heroism...
