22nd anniversary of the Waco Branch Davidian raid which corresponds to the 20th anniversary of the Oklahoma City Federal Building bombing
Also two horrible events in our history that we need to learn from. Our ignorance of history has doomed us to being ignorant of the evil that we support.
Obviously you're included in the "we" and "ignorance" since you went ahead posting something from another country and dismissed what happened here...
Those are also bad incidents from our history which I'm very much aware of. Just because I didn't post about those doesn't mean that I didn't know about them. A common theme among Americans is how little we know about history of events outside of the USA. I'm guessing that many more people knew of the Waco incident or the OKC bombing than knew about the election fraud in Colombia in 1970.
I guess you're like those idiots who complain about "why didn't this time a black person murdered a white person and got 50 years in jail get as much media publicity as the time a white person killed a black person and didn't get charged". If I'm going to point out people's ignorance of history, it makes more sense to post about a major event that few people know about than to post about a major event that most people know about.
