Again, if you're white. Any time black people have organised and advocated for change and especially if they tried to "store enough small arms to organize an insurrection" they were murdered or locked up for life. Look up the MOVE bombing, black panthers, and basically any radical black nationalist group.

So it's not really just my opinion, man. It's demonstrable historical fact. It's just swept under the rug and shouted over with jingoism and other propaganda about how much freedom we enjoy.

Well, that's what happens when you engage in crime, violently resist, and engage in the actual act of insurrection ;)

As it were, the Blacks are not the only ethnicity that have ethnic separatist movements that have been violently squashed, or did you forget the militia movements and subsequent Federal suppressions of the 90s? I suppose that might hurt your narrative, however.
