Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic.

If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you.

There was nothing wrong with what I said. It was a riot with two opposing sides and the blacks did fire the first shots - even the article concedes this point.


 * Nope, it just says shots were fired. Doug Weller  talk 13:25, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

"The gunshots triggered an almost immediate response by whites in the crowd"

Are you being deliberately obtuse?


 * Personal attacks are a bad idea. That bit of the article says ".According to witnesses, a white man is alleged to have told one of the armed black men to surrender his pistol. The man refused, and a shot was fired. That first shot may have been accidental, or meant as a warning; it was a catalyst for an exchange of gunfire. The gunshots triggered an almost immediate response by whites in the crowd, many of whom fired on the blacks, who then fired back at the whites." It's not stated who fired that first shot, or if it was aimed at anyone.  Doug Weller  talk 10:28, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
