Talk:New Orleans Riot

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

How did contributors change the title from New Orleans Massacre (the original title) to New Orleans Riot surreptitiously? The people in the nineteenth century called it a massacre. 71.240.80.150 06:04, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Apparently, high-fallutin' "sys-ops" expunge and destroy contributions, causing materials to completely vanish. In Wikipedia, uneducated teenagers are able to write "history." That is a strange quality of Wikipedia. Wikipedia is on the way to being filled with silliness. 71.253.41.33 14:02, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

The same reason the bulk of the article is talking about the supposed illegality (rather a technicality) of election law which at the time was obviously corrupt, instead of the fact that minorities were massacred in the streets by Southerners. I.e. A "non neutral point of view" which only serves to embolden zealots and racists. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SUNSHINE INCARNATE (talk • contribs) 19:39, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
