Answer:

a violent clash between pro slavery and antislavery forces.

Step-by-step explanation:

The idea that people from new territories would vote on slavery cause problems very quickly. Both sides started showing up in Kansas and a violent wave was the result of it. Things escalated to a point that things seemed out of control. Pro-slavery people burned the settlement of Lawrence, Kansas and John Brown and his abolitionist group murdered a pro-slavery man.
