Tulsa Race Riot
quote:
During the 16 hours of the assault, more than 800 people were admitted to local white hospitals with injuries (the two black hospitals were burned down), and police arrested and detained more than 6,000 black Greenwood residents at three local facilities.[2]:108–109 An estimated 10,000 blacks were left homeless, and 35 city blocks composed of 1,256 residences were destroyed by fire. The official count of the dead by the Oklahoma Department of Vital Statistics was 39, but other estimates of black fatalities vary from 55 to about 300.[2]:108, 228 [3]
The events of the riot were long omitted from local and state histories. "The Tulsa race riot of 1921 was rarely mentioned in history books, classrooms or even in private. Blacks and whites alike grew into middle age unaware of what had taken place."[4] With the number of survivors declining, in 1996, the state legislature commissioned a report to establish the historical record of the events, and acknowledge the victims and damages to the black community. Released in 2001, the report included the commission's recommendations for some compensatory actions, most of which were not implemented by the state and city governments. The state passed legislation to establish some scholarships for descendants of survivors, economic development of Greenwood, and a memorial park to the victims in Tulsa. The latter was dedicated in 2010.

It scares the local populace into submission and there are virtually 0 repercussions.

Well everyone who was involved in that is dead so invading Tulsa may be counterproductive.

They arrested the No. 40 man a couple of years ago. He was replaced by his younger brother, who has also now been arrested.

The 2011 San Fernando massacre
Think about that there next time you snort a line. And people that say there's no reason for illegal immigration. It's because those a lot of those fence hoppers are refugees

They definitely can be. But I'm an intelligent, relatively well informed person. And I've never heard the story of this massacre. So I'm not surprised people are jumping on it.

I think it was trying to point out that there are non Muslim groups that are even more evil than Islamic extremists like Isis. And in my opinion, considering they're doing it out of greed instead of faith, makes it even worse.
These people are a much greater threat to your personal security, as well as your families, and all children across America. They may not drop a bomb on your neighborhood. But that powder and dope will kill many more Americans than Isis ever could. Not to mention ruin many more lives.

No need to invade anybody. Just end the drug war. The cartels go away overnight. Our government's policies make the cartels inevitable. We, you and me, are responsible, for allowing those policies.

Actually, at some point, the civilian population figures they're going to die anyway and rises up because they have nothing to lose.. Vigilante groups are forming in Mexico, just like they did in Colombia. This is no solution, because the vigilantes commit their own excesses and atrocities. But the cartels have sown the seeds of their own destruction.
Unfortunately, none of it was necessary. It's the direct result of 50 years of irrational US drug policies.

I went to Cancun two years ago with my family and had a local tell me it was a matter of time until the drug lords start targeting tourists. He said there has always been an agreement that tourist areas were a no no for kidnapping but these new guys just don't care and will one day test the government.
While we were there we went through two check stops where guys with sub machine guns were standing on both sides of our bus. Makes you realize how much you take security for granted. This opened my eyes to how crazy it is to carry your family to Mexico. It's just not worth the chance going there.

I would be crying uncontrollably in front of my wife, would probably even have snot bubbles coming out before my wife slapped the shite out of me for being a lil bitch.

US and Canada should jointly invade Mexico, kill the drug lords, restore order, and exploit Mexico's natural resources. It'd be better for everyone involved, and North America would be even more of an energy powerhouse.

It bad but this still stands out as probably the worst in modern times....
Rape of Nanking
Perhaps as many as over a quarter of a million were slaughtered in less than a month. And the manner in which it was done is as bad or worse than anything the Cartels or ISIS has in their wet dreams.
