7. According to the book...

The question of slavery went back and forth as Mexico changed governments often in the ten years preceding the Texas Revolution. Many compromises were put forth, but the BASIC tenant on the Mexican side was no slavery, then no NEW slaves, and slaves born in Mexico has to be freed at twenty years old, and then it was straight out "No Slavery!" (in part because in those ten years the Texians had proven time and time again that they would lie, twist the meaning of "employees" vs slaves), take up arms against Mexican authority, sell land that didn't belong to them, bring in more colonists without permission, trade in slaves out of Galveston and Matagorda, and just generally be criminally undesirable. At one point, slaves outnumbered freemen by more than 2 to 1! This is the short list. They were basically deplorable.
