It's interesting to use disenfranchised minorities in a case for opposing gun control, and it's certainly a popular device for conservatives making Second Amendment arguments to liberals. But if the Blacks of Tulsa Oklahoma had been better armed and displayed a willingness to use them, they would have become the very threat the racists were warning against and no one would have opposed the full Army moving in. Should Blacks, Hispanics and perhaps the stray Anarchist today open carry in a show of defiance to the misuse of "state power" I'm not sure the same Patriots would embrace them. Native American genocide probably couldn't have been avoided with more guns -- but I don't think the same Patriots want to consider American Manifest Destiny a misuse of power, seeing as many are Christian Nationalists.
