>None of the answers are that helpful are they?
There are plenty of people on here who will happily answer questions over and over again. I myself have given about 7,500 answers.
However when somebody who is too lazy to do any research themselves, and just copies their homework question down word by word then people get a bit annoyed.
This person has done just that. They probably do not even understand the quesiton, they are just being lazy.
With the availability of the interent it is easy for anyone to at least do some basic research such as a search on "Missouri Crisis".
Once they have done that, and understood the topic a bit, then they are welcome to ask a specific question about a particular person or event.
The way this question is worded they are just getting US to do THEIR work for them.
