They did.

And as far as I can tell from the news reports there were no incidents.

People who legally own guns don’t want to lose the right. They don’t commit many crimes.

“And as far as I can tell from the news reports there were no incidents.”

Depends on how you define “incidents” - the Tulsa PD issued the following advisory around 5pm local time:

To be clear, this is not an issue with people marching and exercising their 2nd Amendment rights.

This is a traffic issue with a group that received a permit to march during a pre-determined time (6:00 pm) and pre-determined path.

At this time the group is marching through the streets of downtown Tulsa creating traffic issues for motorists.
We are attempting to work with the group to get in compliance with the permit and the traffic regulations.

***End of Update***

Please be advised that there is a significant traffic issue on many streets around the downtown Legacy Fest, the scheduled 2nd Amendment march has gone off of the scheduled path and is now grouping outside of the entrance to the Legacy Fest.

Officials with the Legacy Fest do not want visitors carrying weapons in the Greenwood area and the marchers are demanding entrance into the area.

We are working to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

IMO, had a group of Caucasian gun owners left the defined route of their permit in order to go where they weren’t wanted, the media reports would be all about their “lawless behavior” and “threatening demeanor”. Instead, the media have stuck to their script in order to avoid charges of “racism” and “white fragility”.
