Agree.
Quote:
Sincere lover of liberty and equality, convinced that all free men are equals, he will be proud to march out before you, to aid you in your efforts, and the coalition of tyrants will learn that they are loathed equally by men of all colors.
General Alexander Dumas. 1762. A general of African heritage in Napoleons army and father of the author of the same name.
I did not add Insurrectionists to the quote but lets start with tyrants and work our way down to insurrectionists.
