NBC is Comcast

Yes. Why is that not mentioned more ? Should conservatives be patronizing Comcast??

June 14 is Flag Day. And his birthday (and mine FWIW)

Trump should also hold a rally complete with a few hundred flags.

Its the unofficial riot, loot and general mayhem holiday.
Look at videos for juneteenth “celebrations” in south beach, Galveston, Myrtle Beach etc.

Its an interesting comparison between say Mardi Gras, with the Juneteenth celebrations being alot worse.

Uh....said race riot took place on May 31 and June 1, 1921. Not on June 19th.

This is what passes for intellect at NBC?

It certainly isn’t the date of the Emancipation Proclamation, as some seem to be claiming. And, I agree, betcha very few actually know the history behind it.

“Thursday over his decision to hold a campaign rally next week on Juneteenth, a holiday marking the end of slavery, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the site of one of the deadliest race riots in American history, in 1921. “

“juneteenth” originated as a local holiday in Texas. Tulsa is a city in another state that happens to be the place where this riot happened in a completely different century than the event Juneteenth observes.

well, at least its a real date with real meaning in history, and the history of freedom.....not advocating of course using it as a day to bludgeon others, but that is likely what it wil turn into, foolishly

Trump mentioned it a few times. He calls it “Concast” with an N

On occasion, I’ll get berated by a FReeper for pointing out the vertical malice.

REPUBLICANS ENDED SLAVERY.

DEMOCRATS WANTED EACH STATE TO MAKE THEIR OWN DECISION ON SLAVERY.

The greatest increase in black employment and wealth in the black community happened while PDJT is president.

Dem governors lockdowns and the "George Floyd Memorial Loot N Shoot" have tossed all of those gains in the toilet.

And if the polls are to be believed a very large segment of that community spits on the President.

June 19th, the day black Texans learned for the first time that the Emancipation Proclamation had been signed, freeing the slaves, 18 months earlier.

I’m proud of my state for a lot of things, but this ain’t one of them.

Just STFU with your slap in the face... burning and looting isn’t violence... whites are racist BS. Newsflash - I’m all for separate and equal rather than unequal and together.
