Spray paint over it in big black letters ‘BLM’ and see if anyone complains?

Oh please. It wasn’t a massacre, many whites were killed as well, and a lot of it had to do with leftist movements in OK. If we did some real analysis of it, we might actually learn something. But I guess nobody wants to do reality anymore.

It's been done a lot. I bought this one when it was new.

I thought I knew a good bit of history but until this past Spring I had never heard of the “Tulsa Massacre” before in my life.

There was no Tusla Massacre. It was an all-out riot. 30% of those killed were white.

I saw The Pieta at the NY World’s Fair back in the 60’s.

What a stunning work of art.

Yeah, lots of blacks were killed. But who started it? Armed blacks marching on the courthouse?

That sort of image is extremely common in comic books.

When I was young I read a book called the Agony and the Ecstasy which changed my life. I have recently bought it to read again. What am amazing person Michelangelo was.

I got to travel for work to Italy and was blessed to stand at the feet of Michelangelo’s David. There are no words to describe it. Nothing compares.

The moment was slightly ruined by a bunch of Japanese that were taking pictures while being chased by Italians screaming “No Photo! No Photo!”

I did, too. It was a very moving experience for me.

Nor I. Nor Juneteenth either.

Is this the actual headline from Huffington Post?
