Answer
Garrison believed that slavery should not be gradually abolished, but rather immediately ended. He opposed the idea of expanding slavery to new states in the West and supported helping enslaved people in the long run. He argued that all men are created equal and endowed with certain inalienable rights, and therefore, he would not use moderation in the cause of abolition. He would not equivocate, excuse, or retreat a single inch, and he would be heard.
