TULSA — Several members of the Tulsa chapter of the NAACP gathered at a north Tulsa church Friday evening for an emergency meeting to discuss what police have characterized as a possible "shooting spree" that targeted five people early Friday morning.
As news spread that the police are looking for a white man in connection with the shootings of five black people, people began saying they believe the shootings were racially motivated.
KRMG spoke with Tulsa City Councilor Jack Henderson as the meeting continued in the 2200 block of N. Peoria Avenue.
When asked if people in the community felt that the shooter or shooters were deliberately targeting black people, he replied "yes, absolutely."
He told KRMG the "word on the street is that this person would drive up to people walking, ask for directions, and when they would turn away, walk away, begin firing. That's truly a concern, and anybody would be (ill) at ease if you knew this was going on."
He added that "I've talked to the Mayor, and the Mayor assures me that the city is on top of this. The police chief, I've talked to him, they have a lot of people that are on this case, they'll be working around the clock."
Henderson said he urges anyone with information to come forward, and in the meantime he wants people to be careful. Also, he definitely wants to avoid any sort of vigilantism.
"Don't go out late at night walking by yourself, until these people are apprehended. We need to be careful, and we don't want anybody to go out and do any vigilante-type stuff either. Let the police do their jobs."
” Be careful out there. Things appear to be heating up.”
You’re right about that. If this can happen in Tulsa, no city is in the clear. Oklahoma is very conservative.
Regardless of race, Oklahomans come with CCL’s in their wallet also, and will defend blacks as readily as whites against drive by’s. Doubt this lasts long for the perp(s).
Good point about the elderly couple in Oklahoma who were victimized by black criminals.
FOX Radio news mentioned the Friday Tulsa crimes on their 11:00 AM news broadcast (Eastern time), but I never hear FOX Radio mention the elderly white couple in Oklahoma, nor the 78 year old white man beaten by black thugs in Akron, Ohio.....or the 50 year old white man beaten with a hammer in Sanford, Florida by black teens (he is near death).....or the white college student in Mississippi who was shot in his dorm by blacks.....or the white guy in Baltimore who was robbed, beaten, stripped and videotaped by feral blacks......or the white teenager walking home from school who was set on fire by black teens, etc.
Where is the emergency meeting for these white victims?
Yeah..
These people remind me of Horschack in the old "Welcome Back Kotter" series - jumping up with raised hand shouting, "Ooh-ooh-ooooh!" as in "ME FIRST!, ME FIRST!" to cry racism.
You may not be aware of one condition Rule #1 of CCL. You are only allowed to defend yourself or your family, nobody else.
The reasoning is that if you happen upon a situation they don’t want you shooting a cop.
Start looking for someone named Wayne who drives a white pickup...
” This sounds suspicious, too convenient. I recall a similar rush to judgment in Atlanta when black children were targeted. The “media” pushed the “evil” white guy (with no proof)then it turned out to be a black man.”
Happens all the time. This sounds like an excuse to riot, before they find out the perp is black : )
Tusla is where that elderly white couple suffered rape and murder from a home invasion by blacks. Other high profile black mob, aka “youths”, on white violence in Tusla, too.
Not good.
Does NBC have any 911 tapes?
They are hunting desperately for their Reichstag Fire.
White man who shot 5 blacks.
This is why we always know it is a black or Hispanic perp when the skin color of the perp isn’t listed. ANYTIME a white man is a perp, it is stated as such in the article, and especially if the victims are black or Hispanic.
The MSM think they are being so smart to withhold the skin color of black perps or the heritage of Hispanic perps, but we know better.
They do this like clockwork.
ANYTIME the perps are not ID’d you ca be sure they are “Amish or rogue Swedes”, anything but white guys.
Too easy.
And yes, go screw yourselves, Bill Clinton and the MSM, for making me a racist and think such bad thoughts on Holy Saturday. You are all despicably evil.
>> a white man in connection with the shootings of five black people, people began saying they believe the shootings were racially motivated.
Because this is a statistical anomaly? Ya’ know, given the lack of racial suspicion over the day-to-day data pointing to the disproportionate violence that’s plagued the Country for the last half century.
Good job, Media. Your race baiting may yield the rotten fruit you hoped for — you mofus!
We desperately need leaders that will unite the Country, not assholes that aim to divide it.
You make a good point, but I can’t imagine anyone with a CCL
and carrying, standing by to watch a shooting drive-by firing at innocent citizens because they are not related. You know what I mean?
Btw, in Oklahoma a gun is loaded if the clip is in, but in Texas a gun is loaded when in the chamber. Does that still hold?
Actually, do we even know if the shooter is a “white” man? Most Hispanics are white, with few blacks and much fewer Asian Hispanics.
We also know that ALL Hispanic perps are labelled as “white”, implying they are European descendant whites.
So how do we know this is not a Hispanic killing blacks?
I will withhold my belief it is a European white man until I learn if the shooter is Hispanic or not. It could be either, but I know that ALL Hispanic perps are called “white” so it could well be a Hispanic on black gang shooting for all I know.
Zimmerman gets around, don’t he?
Not just Barry but lest not forget Charlie too - Charlie Manson.
Not just Barry but lest not forget Charlie too - Charlie Manson.
No one knows for sure if the (white) shooter was motivated by race....as far as we know he was randomly shooting people in this black neighborhood ...he probably lives in the area...
He could have just as easily went bonkers in a Hispanic or white neighborhood...
Anybody who randomly kills three people and wound two others is not in his right mind anyway...
It turned out that the truth was a little different, but who gives a damn about the truth these days when we have "Hope and Change"?
By their very absence in the “Daily/Weekly Chicago Massacre”, and all thru the Nation, they are actively encouraging it. I truly fear that the “rapidly-bubbling racial conflict/riot cauldron” in America, which is of their specific and intentional doing, will erupt this Summer (or sooner), just in time for 0bummer to invoke the newly-EO-revised NDRP Act into effect.

I hope I’m wrong; I truly do.
