WRONG ... IT IS WOUNDED KNEE
Not a shooting...McVeigh used fertilizer.
Over 300 killed at the battle of Greasy Grass, aka, The Little Big Horn.
The Bath school bombing?
Not even anywhere near that many dead—that many casualties, perhaps, but not that many dead.
If you are going to count war battles, then Gettysburg takes the title. Whites died in the 10’s of thousands in a single battle to free the blacks.
I hear a few guys got some boo boos on Dec 7,1941.
And Bath, Michigan in the 1920s.
From what was said yesterday, it’s the biggest mass shooting by a single individual.
upwards of 200 civilian men and boys were killed in Quantrill’s raid on Lawrence, Kansas.
how is Wounded Knee worse than that?
don’t forget the Fort Mims massacre, where as many as 400 settlers and militia were murdered and scalped by indians.

BULLSH!... er, yes
And let’s not forget that the U.S. stopped SS St. Louis from docking in 1939. The ship was sent back to Europe. Of the 907 Jewish refugees aboard, almost 300 died in Nazi death camps.
And to top it off, many of the soldiers were given the Medal of Honor.
Goliad Massacre, although Texas was still part of Mexico.
Hardly comparable since the antagonists were military and probably got what they deserved.
Not a shooting...McVeigh used fertilizer
A shitting then?
Around 90 Indians were killed by Pennsylvania militia in the Gnadenhütten Massacre in Ohio in 1782. And dozens of settlers were killed by Creek Indians at Fort Mimms, Ala. in 1813.
I take the point, but it’s a poor comparison. This was a time of war between the US and militant native Americans. You may as well include the American Civil War as the greatest mass killing in the US.
Speaking to the headline, all of the soldiers bodies were desecreted as well. And indian women and children were killed as well, a very important point for liberals.
