Who cares
So with this same logic… a serial killer dies before trial and we go and arrest his daughter, son, niece, nephiew, or grand kids and punish them for something they had nothing to do with?
Ridiculous!!! What's next???
More dislikes than likes… racism is alive and well in America 🇺🇸 😳
Race race race professionale victims
Mormons massacred too in Utah, wait hasn't there always been some type of massacre through out history?
The people involved are all dead.
Mankind is always looking for justice from our fellow man. From my point of view man is more often than not unjust. So don't look to man for justice. Look to the One who is always Just.
What do the descendant's have to do with it?
Brother you are a Pastor so I will ask in the same manor as the Lord asked the Pharisees. Haven't you read? The soul that sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself. Jesus did not give book, chapter, and verse because they should have known being the learned ones. I will give you where it is written for the ones that don't know scripture. Ezekiel 18:20. These are not my words but the Lords through his Prophet. I pray the Lords name be glorified through this. In Jesus name Amen!
What do you mean justice. They’re all dead, man💀
Dude, there's modern day, slavery on the border right NOW sex trafficking, human trafficking modern day slavery, people being sold people being used. and you want And you think you know what slavery is.
Reparations for something to happen 100 years ago wow you blacks really have no shame. And watching in Tulsa the New Black panther party talking about kill everything that's white. You're just trying to make a bunch of people racist.
20 unarmed black people were killed by police last year and 5,500 died in car accidents.
Do you know how many more black people died in the George Floyd riots way more than died in Tulsa.
Justice has been served. The perpetrators are dead. How many generations must pass before we read and ponder this as history of a very bad event. Ask the Native Americans…
If the media and activists were truly interested in uniting the people they would focus on what the things that are similar in all humans. Constantly pointing out our differences will only work to further divide us.
This idiot is a doctor? Who knows what atrocities his ancestors committed in Africa? He better look in the mirror when praying for justice or step outside his glass house before he starts throwing stones.
Joe Biden speaking at Tulsa is a little bizarre considering his history of racist comments and the fact that he gave a glowing eulogy for Ku Klux Klan leader Robert Byrd. It was the Klan that did the massacre. Joe Biden and top Democrats now pretending that they are very moved by the awful Tulsa massacre. Truth is that they never heard of it till a few weeks ago when political consultants showed it to them and told them to exploit it for political purposes.
why do u think racist democrats are tearing down statues they put up? why do u think racist democrats have whitewashed history in the schools to cover up their racist past? why do u think racist democrats are teaching racism in the schools? because racist democrats are the party of slavery, segregation, jim crow laws, lynchings, the kkk.. racist democrats have never got over the republicans freeing their slaves and the racist democrats have never ever told the blacks we are sorry

1 Corinthians 9:24
 “Know ye not that they which run in a RACE run all, but ONE receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.â€ÂÂ
Psalms 94
"Who will RISE UP for me against the evildoers? or who will STAND UP for me against the workers of iniquity?"
"Unless the LORD had been MY HELP, my soul had almost dwelt in SILENCE."
"When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, HELD ME UP."
"In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul."
"Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?"
"They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood."
But the LORD is my DEFENCE; and my God is the ROCK of my refuge.
"And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall CUT THEM OFF!"

Reparations for black Americans. It's not about 1921. It's about racism that still holds us down today. It's still happening, racists still work against black excellence. Don't get it, bc it ain't about you. Simple. If this happen to any population, I would like to see them get back what was lost. But nothing compares to the travesty in Tulsa in the USA. We were brought here as slaves, beaten, culture stripped, families divided. And still hated mocked and envied. Your still driving on streets using technology slaves invented and were never repaid for. We are the descendants and it will be made right.
The decedents had nothing to do with it,they don’t deserve anything. That won’t stop insane democrats from paying all the families which will be thousands in number.
The Left wants you to focus on race rather than economics. We have an economic issue not a race issue. Don't listen to their lies.
DemoKkkrat lead massacre

Right! Cause the horrible event 100 years is the root cause for everything wrong in the country.
This presstitute media will no anything to digress from issues at hand.
This idiot needs to learn his history- tulsa is a 1920's BLm bullshit like that of today.
black lives matter didn't work ? . why wasen't this massacre's brought up right after obama the BLACK got into white house ? what about black soldiers went to vietnam and massacred vietnamese people .did'nt do any harm to black people ? or white people . THIS RACE. COLOUR POLITICS DOES ACTUALLY WORK . LOL
America really needs to stop. You really do believe black people are stupid. You new nothing about Tulsa and what took place? Every event that took place in this country is recorded in Washington, So stop ok enough running ok you run faster than me and I'm black and can run.
Tulsa isn't the only black story in America . 1199.999 months 100 yrs something has happen to a black person in America .
When do the people who lost their businesses, cars, homes and lives receive payment from ANTIFA and BLM from riots last year? When do businesses receive payment for all the looting from ANTIFA and BLM?
Yes for the black and white murdered victims. You seem to skip that part of history.
That would be awesome if the descendants received Justice. I read these comments and I'm blown away from people who know their lineage from people who weren't stolen from their country whose men weren't dehumanized, beating rape yup rape whose women weren't raped whose babies weren't fed to alligators who doesn't have to read about their history and learn about our ancestors being trampled on by horses just to vote, being hung, having their heads cut off who was forced to work for free and whose whole heritage, culture, was stripped not to mention the mental traumas passed down from generation to generation just imagine had we not been stolen from our country kept in bondages this wouldn't even be a conversation piece.
Lord have mercy. Concentrate on the now not linger about what happened a hundred years ago…. good grief get over it…
That’s how white people treated other races.
They are raised to be racist.
Ever catch a kid staring at you with hate in his or her eyes?
Majority of them would do the same thing today if they could.
(They) means the racist white people.
I know not all Anglo people are racist… a lot of them are good hearted people just like there are racist black, Hispanic, Indian, etc…
As long as hate is taught to young kids racism will never end.
It is like drugs and addiction it’s here to stay.
A massacre happens every year but no one calls it that.
George Floyd and everyone else that was murdered is a massacre!
Maybe in one hundred years from now the media will call it that.
Call it like you see it !
It is what it is my amigos!
I'm Asian/German do I get 2 checks) $$$$$$
I was surprised to learn most lynching occurred for murder,
rape, and major crimes. Black,
White, German, Italian, Latino,
Asians all experience lynching
Are you serious, justice comes for the decendants. What are you going to do, put the decendants of the people that did the massacre in jail? Come on. All of the people that did this are dead. It would be like going after the children of the people that did 9/11. Again it was 100 years ago. Maybe we should pay some reparations, I could agree with that, but other than that what can we do about the past? And it's not like we haven't moved on from the 1920's. Segregation is illegal, black people can do whatever they want. We have had a black president. There are black astronauts, doctors, Mayors, etc. In fact there's more black millionaires today than there ever was in the history of this country. There's hate crime laws that make it illegal to terrorize people because of their race, religion, etc. There's scholarships for black people. I mean think about it. This country has gotten better. I am sorry this happened, but there's really nothing you can do about history. Germany apologized and paid reparations to the Jews, we could do the same for black people, but that's about all we can do. You can't turn back time.
Yous are all undeveloped souls remember that undeveloped systems start developing that life we all can enjoy with nature
Stop complaining and start creating

More race baiting from the BS MSM
"In American politics, the Southern strategy was a Republican Party electoral strategy to increase political support among white voters in the South by appealing to racism against African Americans…"
The Governments gonna claim they don't have the money even though the just gave Israel $1 Billion in military aid today
This needs to happen! It’s not all that needs to be made right but it’s a great start!!
How can u get justice when the people who caused it are dead
Many years ago, my grandfather was wronged by someone,,, I think. I demand to get paid for that. I’m sure it happened. Couldn’t tell ya his name, where he was from, or even which side but still,, I want paid for it.
Tulsa Pastor: 'Gibs me dat fo free'
Is that corn pop?
Pastor, huh? I hope justice comes for everyone fleeced by the religious. How do you like those apples?
It all about votes!
