Tulsa Mayor G.T. Bynum, a Republican, declared a civil emergency and announced a curfew near the arena where President Donald Trump will host a campaign rally this weekend.
Bynum’s executive said that crowds in excess of 100,000 are expected to show up near the rally. Opposition protests are also scheduled, according to the mayor, who said that he will place a federal exclusion zone near the arena.
The Tulsa Police Department also wrote that as part of our preparations for President Trumps Rally this Saturday, we are working on making the area secure for everyones safety.
As posted earlier, the area illustrated in this map will need to be free of vehicles and pedestrian traffic, the office wrote. In a separate post on Facebook, police said that the area of downtown will be off-limits from 10 p.m. Thursday to 6 a.m. Saturday.
Bynum, in his executive order, said that he received information from the citys police department and other agencies that “individuals from organized groups who have been involved in destructive or violent behavior in other states are planning to travel to the City of Tulsa for purposes of causing unrest in and around the rally.
People who were camped outside the arena to attend the Trump rally were moved out of the area, local media outlets reported.

ok fine, thanks very much
Whoopps, it was the President that said disrupters will not be treated like they have been in New York, Seattle, or Minneapolis.
It wouldn’t surprise me if someone walked around the crowd outside discharging an aerosol can of ricin or other toxin.
Too many that refer to themselves Americans are comfortable living on their knees today. They prefer living on their knees to living on their feet. They don’t care who they bow before as long as they can kneel and lick someone’s boots.
How about a NO to all that?
“Mayor G.T. Bynum, a Republican, declared a civil emergency and announced a curfew near the arena where President Donald Trump will host a campaign rally this weekend.”
But didn’t he allow BLM protest rallies in Tulsa?
Bring it on.
The rally WILL go on.
And it will be spectacular.
One of Trumps greatest rallies ever.
Can’t wait.
Any protesters, anarchists, agitators, looters or lowlifes who are going to Oklahoma please understand, you will not be treated like you have been in New York, Seattle, or Minneapolis. It will be a much different scene!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 19, 2020
It doesnt matter whether youre for or against the Trump rally. You can almost take it to the bank that the media will report a huge spike in covid cases for Tulsa by this time next week.
This may just be logical and necessary protective action.
Maybe (hopefully) this mayor just is planning ahead NOT TO tolerate any BS.
It does not sound like an attempt to shut it down
Hopefully they went home to get ready to Open Carry!

I have an idiot brother who is heading down to Tulsa, and while I don’t think he’ll riot or loot, he’s a far left. No telling how many of his lunatic friends are joining him.
Yes. A RINO. This link is from the Oklahoma Shooters forum and calls him the RINO that he is.
He is a big Lib. One of his first things as Mayor was to hire an even bigger lib and former mayor Kathy Taylor, D, to his team. He conspired with the Rats to change the election rules to secure the win.
All that said, he is better than than most Rat mayors.
So, I’m guessing if you were at the front of any line before the curfew to get in to the rally, you are now just like the Antifa folks.
