Tulsa imposes curfew ahead of Trump rally

43

President Trump tweeted this Friday morning, a day before his rally in Tulsa:

“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!”

That statement came out right before Tulsa Mayor G.T. Bynum posted a message on Facebook about how “We will go through it as a community.”

Tulsa declares last-minute curfew after Trump supporters waited for days outside rally venue

Tulsa imposes curfew ahead of Trump rally to prevent violent protesting

Colby Itkowitz, CT Post, June 19, 2020:

Tulsa has announced a curfew for Friday and Saturday nights, restricting people from a large area surrounding the arena where President Donald Trump will hold his first campaign rally in months.

An executive order signed by Mayor G.T. Bynum, D, says the curfew, which begins at 10 p.m. and lifts at 6 a.m. both nights, is intended to quell potential overnight violence as thousands intend to pour into the city to protest the president’s visit.

It’s unclear whether the Trump supporters who have camped out for days to secure a prime spot to see the president on Saturday will be cleared out as well.

The police informed Bynum that “individuals from organized groups who have been involved in destructive and violent behavior in other states are planning to travel to the City of Tulsa for purposes of causing unrest in and around the rally,” the order reads.

People who refuse to leave the area risk arrest, the Tulsa Police Department warned on Twitter.

“This is an unprecedented event for the City of Tulsa and has hundreds of moving parts, we are asking for everyone’s help in making this a safe event for all citizens,” the department tweeted.

Trump’s rally, his first since the coronavirus crisis shut down public gatherings, has angered some residents who worry the event could cause a large scale outbreak. They have sued the venue manager, demanding that the arena adhere to social distancing guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention or be canceled.

The venue managers have asked the Trump campaign for a detailed plan of the safety measures it will take to prevent the spread of the highly-contagious virus. The campaign intends to supply rallygoers with masks and hand sanitizer, but will not be keeping attendees six feet apart.

The BOK Center in downtown Tulsa where the rally will be held holds 19,000 people. The Trump campaign says it has received 1 million requests for tickets.

We will need the black vote.
Nationwide DEMS out number Republicans.
We can’t win without swing voters and Independents.
We are also competing against, dead people, illegals, voters who vote mulitple times, mail in ballots, ballot harvesting, vote ranking etc…

Trump only got 8% of the Black vote in 2016. Biden’s campaign will be calling Trump a racist everyday till the election. If none of the recent events and Trumps’s positive record does not persuade at least 12-15% of black voters to vote for him, all is lost. We should just raise the white flag and surrender to Leftists.

Agreed but to fight a war you need to first recognize you are under attack (London, Pearl Harbor), and then identify your enemy. The allies did that successfully during WWII which is why today your American children don’t speak German but Syrian children do.
Presently, the American (Conservative) Right does not fully recognize that we are under attack and even worse, it lacks the leadership to develop a cohesive strategy like Leftists clearly have. They also don’t realize how many Leftists have infiltrated the Republican Party and are part of the deep state mechanism that tried to bring down Trump. It’s far more than just a handful of high profile RHINOs like Romney, Bolton, Powell and Mattis.
Ironically, the Right is still better at winning elections and that’s solely because they dominate the white vote which is still 70% of the electorate.
The Left is not stopping until they have changed America into something that is unrecognizable to us but very familiar to the Communist Chinese. A growing percentage of Americans support this movement and are willing to surrender their Constitutional rights or are too ignorant to realize they are. It’s already happening
A generation of college students now accept that their university can and should censor their speech and censor the speech of outsiders. Besides a handful of right wing media folks and dissenters from Turning Point, the war on campus is already lost. Scary stuff. A large percentage of these students have also been conditioned to believe that socialism is good and capitalism is bad. That whites are evil and blacks are victims. Of course its simplistic and false but When indoctrination replaces knowledge, reason, and debate, anything becomes truth (See Orwell)
Trump was an unexpected obstacle that has caused Leftists to temporarily adjust their strategy and ground game but even if he wins again, it won’t stop the Left’s momentum.
Unless the American Right starts to organize and develop real leadership within govt, community, church and business, and learns to win battles besides elections, all is lost. Then violence becomes the last and only option. We’re creeping towards CW2. At least we have most of the guns.

We know who the enemy is here and so do others. I listened to some of the people being interviewed by BB at the Tulsa rally. They know.

Allot of these BLM people think it is about Floyd. It isn’t. It’s about pushing Marxism. My take is people are nervous about cheat in the general and hoping we can have more clean votes than cheat votes. If Biden or a substitute wins, then you will see an uprising. That’s just my guess.

Now people are also starting to reclaim their rights. They are seeing through the virus farce. Old people and compromised health people are the high risk. We were fooled into thinking we’d all die and people want their lives back.

I agree … Trump is a disruptor domestically and globally and they believe he has o go! This is an all out war without direct fighting just yet.

Nothing is ever lost until one surrenders. The Left took the long road of first infiltrating our institutions and then corrupting them. Meanwhile the Right have been asleep and let that happen. The Right needs to wake up as you rightly point out but not to give up but to actually engage. The Right has a habit of running from a fight. If the Left come after them, they run to safe spaces. Once in their safe space, they find they are again surrounded by Leftists. Then the Right blames Commiefornia for pumping out Leftists instead of recognizing their own kids are being hijacked through the years of indoctrination they receive in schools. We must first recognize why the evil is becoming dominant then take back the education of our kids which includes the spiritual education of our kids. But we must also repent and fix our walk with God.

In the times of the Apostles, the Christians were vastly outnumbered and persecuted. In this day and age, anti-Christian sentiment is growing as the Left not only rewrites our history to de-legitimize our nation’s founding, the Left also attack Christianity because at the core of our nation’s founding is the Bible. If the Left can de-legitimize the Bible then they can de-legitimize the Constitution.

“Our Constitution was made for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the governance of any other.” John Adams

John Adams was insightful. He recognized that what holds us together as a nation is a common moral foundation. Not just any common moral foundation but a Christian one. Atheists have no moral foundation. Their sense of right and wrong is based on their feelings. There is only one worldview that enshrined equality into its core documents. That moral foundation was also what drove it to actively fight against slavery. Islam certainly has no sense of equality in it. Religious freedom in Islam is unfathomable. Atheists certainly have no justification for equality. And atheists think religion is evil so they work to restrict the free exercise of one’s religious beliefs. Being that Islam is both anti-Jew and anti-Christian, it makes sense that the atheist Left would side with them as they have a common enemy…. Christians and the Right. The further we get from the God of the Bible, the less we will embrace our nation and its foundation until eventually too many of us will want to get rid of our Constitution that we have and put in place some Marxist screed.

You are going to have allot of this and it has already started. Once the election is called for Biden if he is the one they run in the general and wins, there will be no checking of vote cheatng after a victory. The Michigan Secretary of State is purposely creating a mess that is over ripe for cheating without getting caught!

Hundreds of Michigan Residents Turn Over Unsolicited Ballot Applications
Sent to Dead, Noncitizen, Underage ‘Voters’

KYLE OLSON 19 Jun 2020

Breitbart News previously reported that Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson (D) used $4.5 million of CARES Act funds to usurp the power of local clerks to automatically send unrequested ballot applications to all 7.7 million Michigan registered voters.

(The Cares Act money wasn’t supposed to be used for THAT!)

Several people took to social media or contacted Johnson’s office to complain that applications arrived at their address for previous occupants, many of whom moved away years ago or are dead.

Eric Johnson posted on Facebook that he received an application at his home for the former owner’s dad who has “been dead 20 years.”

In an appearance on The Kyle Olson Show, Johnson contended Benson is breaking Michigan law and even her own department rules with the mailings.

Colleges are registering out-of-state students to vote, and there’s no way to know if they are double-voting because only 40 percent of states communicate about registered voters.

“There’s no system in place for them to get caught,” the senator said.

That could have a dramatic impact on the 2020 election, as President Trump won Michigan by .3 percent, or less than 11,000 votes.

I’ll save you some time:

“When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”

While being an English Teacher, my ‘not white’ principal TOLD me I MUST teach my class with “ebonics”. My response to her was, “I CANNOT teach with “ebonics” with all due respect for my students. I do not want to anchor my students to the neighborhood. I informed my principal that I MUST teach English so my students. If or when the student moves out of the neighborhood, they will be able to communicate with other Americans.
Thus, consequently, I learned what BIASED PREJUDICE meant FIRST HAND!

Since the largest communist organization in the world is the government of China, and China totally *hates* the Muslims, the Caliphate will be short-lived. If only we can make those two tyrannies fight each other *before* they destroy the US.

The Chinese communists have no time for religion of any kind. It’s just a matter of time before they eliminate them. Eventually they will fight one another. I’d like to see Europe blow up with the Muslims. That would have more of an impact than China killing Muslims.

I must complain, in the strongest possible terms, about your assumption that the BLM/Antifa rioters are “anarchists”. Real ideological Anarchists would never consent to being ruled by a warlord like “Raz of CHAZ” in Seattle. Despite their names, these opportunistic thugs are *Fascists*, pure and simple, as their own actions prove. Please call them by their rightful name.

I suspect that the Tulsa police, the attendees, and the citizens of Tulsa themselves will prevent any BLM/Antifa rioters from attacking the rally. IIRC, Oklahoma is either a “shall issue” or “Constitutional carry” state.
