    I figured that's what Aeao was referencing to begin with, considering that he wrote "blow it up" and I don't think he was being figurative.

    Frankly, even though we're citing both of them as examples of black wealth being suppressed for the purpose of this discussion, I would struggle to call Tulsa and Atlanta "the same" because the tactics were so much more brutal in the former (firebombing and mass-murder vs. eminent domain).

    I get them all mixed up. It’s happened a lot I different ways. But yeas they blew one the fuck up.

    And yeah it’s hard to rank “bad” blown up and killed is worse. It is all bad tho, they other time they would’ve used a bomb if they needed to.
