Harriet Tubman only survived to become famous because she was sick the day of John Brown’s Harpers Ferry raid.

I would plead to being sick too if someone was seriously going to go attack a Federal Arsenal. She should have been rounded up with all the other conspiracists.

And this business of Frederick Douglas knowing about it, isn't that misprision of a Felony?

Dunno. Tubman was already felon for helping slaves escape along the Underground Railroad. But that only makes her a hero. What did she have to lose?

The Frederick Douglass part is more interesting. Douglass was a leading light of the Abolitionists. This illuminates the nature of the Abolitionist movement. It wasn’t all “Love your brother,” “Am I not a Man and a Brother, too?” and stuff like that. There were hardcore terrorists among the Abolitionists, and they were apparently mainstream to the movement.

This is very applicable to our current situation. We already know that corporations are shelling out millions ($100 million in the case of Apple!) to BLM and Antifa. I bet there are connections directly into the Democrat party. But, because neither BLM or Antifa is being prosecuted, none of this is splashing on them.

"I would plead to being sick too if someone was seriously going to go attack a Federal Arsenal."

You know, that's exactly what the Founders did.

When King George plotted a scheme to implement gun control and take gun powder, etc, the Founders (probably better to say "founding generation") got together and attacked British forts(or at least a fort) to steal British weapons first and otherwise hide their weapons before the regulars arrived. Paul Revere was there as was John Langdon who later signed the Constitution. This was after the burning of the Gaspee but prior to Lexington.

The Battle of Lexington and Concord was one of two things: the second reason was gun control. FR has this as a recurring graphic:

British gun control against the colonies wasn't a one time event.
