    Yep. He considers being in his way of a photo op “rioting.”

    He considers 75-year-old Martin Gugino ANTIFA.

    It's absolutely not a false equivalency.

    Trump speaking at the location and anniversary of a massacre of blacks with a white right-wing crowd is precisely the exact same thing as the Saudi King speaking on 9/11 in NYC about Wahhabism.

    There is nothing anti black at Trump rallies. Trump wasn't alive for . It's not a kkk rally

    Trump has nothing to do with the Tulsa massacre. His audience doesn't either

    Right, and the Saudi King didn't have anything to do with 9/11 and is actually our ally. Nothing anti-American about the Saudis and they aren't Al Qaeda so my analogy holds.

    Your analogy doesn't hold. Trump isn't from Oklahoma. His family isn't from Oklahoma.

    The Saudi King is from Saudia Arabia

    It does hold. Trump isn't from OK, and the Saudi King isn't from NYC.

    He is from Saudia Arabia. The 9-11 terrorists aren't from NYC either

    Trump has NO connection to Oklahoma

    And Ibn Saud isn't from NYC - that's my point!

    Look, Trump going to have a MAGA rally full of confederate flag waving maniacs on the anniversary and location of a horrible massacre by racists upon blacks is a bad idea. It strikes a horrible message and that's why he changed it.

    Seems like you should tell him he was wrong.

    I don't see Confederate flags at Trump rallies. As a matter of fact I'm sure the media would be all over that

    But you have to lie to make a point

    The fact he changed it shows he is sympathetic to some black concerns

    You found one. Great his rallies still aren't white supremacists events. Unfortunately Confederate flags aren't unique to Trump as far as Republican rallies

    You’re so naive. Go jerk off to Candace Owens. Unfortunately unlike her you’re not making any cash off your posts here.

    I found 3 and you just said there were not any and said I was making up a lie.

    Sounds like you are being very dishonest here, once again.

    That was stupid of me n6to think there aren't Confederate flags there.

    They still aren't white supremacists rallies. There are black people at his rallies also

    As far the Tulsa massacre is concerned I'm glad its finally getting attention. Everyone needs to know this history and black people need see what we can achieve

    Uncalled for. Candace Owens is a black success story of achievment, beauty and smarts- she deserves a statue if anyone

    I think that is the point of why having a rally in Tulsa on Juneteenth was a bad idea.

    I agree, there is ugly on both sides- the protestors that killed the black cop is pretty ugly . where was BLM outcry? or the federal cop..these were role models cuz...someones grandfather bro, and your side treated them like garbage and a afterthought. pure disgusting hypocrisy. Fine examples of people in society and they were cut down on cold cement ... My heart breaks because when society is in a mob, that mob doesnt gives a rats azz about the black business they destroyed or black lives they cut down. Their actions speak evil and the mob mentality needs to be stopped

    First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

    Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.

    Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

    Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

    No they are not white supremacist rallies, but given Trump's history of comments you have to know he is seen a divisive figure who doesn't stand with blacks. Having a Trump rally in Tulsa on that date would not be good.

    And that's what's alarming about Trump is that he is so divisive and doesn't make even a token effort to bring a country together. Now we can disagree on what needs to be done to help blacks be empowered, but I am only focusing on why this rally was a bad idea.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "my side" considering I was glad that the killer of LEO Dorn was caught and it looks like Dorn will get Justice.

    That said what does the killing of LEO Dorn have to do with the Tulsa Rally or that many have shown up at Trump rallies with Confederate Flags? Are you saying that one justifies or excuses the other?
