- Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum
On April 19, 1995 residents of Oklahoma City went about their day as though it were any other day. The streets were bustling, the traffic had picked up and people were on their way to work in the downtown area. Things seemed normal, that was until a moving truck pulled in front of one of the buildings in downtown and the driver walked away from from leaving inside a device which would change the city and country forever.
Today we look on at the footprint of what once was a thriving federal building. We see instead the lasting memory of those who were lost on that day and the impact that violence had on not only those honored at the site, but all of us. Today we are visiting the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum for a somber look at the realities of that grim day and the ongoing impact it still carries today not only on Oklahoma but on each of us.
Come explore with me, with an open mind and open heart.

Thank you for sharing this museum, I have never been but I think I need to visit after seeing this. Sometimes just being able to confront the memories of past trauma is something we need. I don’t think I’ll be able to go through with dry eyes, but many of the things you shared in this video really do seem to bring light to the ongoing struggles. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing this museum, we have been and it is a wonderfully done museum to honor those lost and those who survived.
No thank you for watching and sharing your story! I just really wanted to share the location because some are unaware of it being a part of the memorial site and others are unable to visit and see it for themselves. I think places like this are very important so even though it is harder to share a place like this because it is so heavy it is a necessity to do so.
We woke up like most on this day and merely went to work. I was already at work and settling in for a regular day when there was an announcement made and everyone hurried to the break room to see what was on the television. Anxiety spread through the room and you could see everyone rushing about calling loved ones and trying to make plans to assure their children were alright. We were in Texas but they were speaking of other attacks being a possibility. By the end of the day when they were speaking of those being pulled from the building, I watched on for hours with my wife while we kept the kids away from the television. Many years later after this museum opened we visited and my wife and I both relived the moments we had on that day. Since my daughter has also visited and told us of all the things she learned having been there. Thank you for sharing this museum, it is something all should visit.
Thank you for sharing your story of that day. I agree entirely with your recommendation that everyone try to come and visit the museum it is so well done and has such an impact.
I remember this moment like yesterday. I worked in a county courthouse in Omaha and we were evacuated bc they thought other major courthouses were going to be hit as well. When I went to that incredibly well done museum one of the names of one that perished had my name. Thanks for sharing! Very well done!!! You are so great.
Thank you for watching, my goal in sharing was to put this out there for those who have not been or are unable to do so in hopes that they would better understand the impact of that day or see a piece of the museum that might resonate with them. The museum is well done and handles the subject in a personal way that really rips at you when you are inside and I think that sharing even a piece of that is important. Your story sounds similar to another one of the commenters who mentioned their experience with federal buildings near them, the impact of this single event across the country is so vast.
You have an incredible energy about you. I love how you took us through this memorial and museum, your contemplative voice, allowing us to see your personal reaction and the impact this place had on you and your emotions as evidenced by your tone of voice and mannerisms.
I felt like I was there and on an actual tour but safe at home where I could fully process and feel the impact of this day in private to shed my tears, feel my chest get tight and think about where I was and what I was doing and how thankful I am that I have never had to experience something like this and I hope that I and no one else ever has to again.
Thank you for keeping it real.
This is. a great video and worthy of sitting a middle school or high school class down and watching it so they get to see real history and figure out a way to make sure that their generation does better than the previous ones have.
I always try, even when it is hard, to capture my genuine reactions and emotions on camera because I feel authenticity is important in life in general. This place really does have a heavy feeling on you when you visit and it is hard to see. But when you visit you are also surrounded by rooms of interviews, newscasts, sounds and more and it really factors into the chaotic feeling of that days events. So many details, so much sadness.
I can now see why you said there was a heavy subject. This is more than heavy, it is so sad. I cannot imagine what it felt like to be one of those people or one of the people even responding to the scene that day. Places like this need to exist for that very reason, me as a woman who travels going to places like this to try to understand the world around me more completely and piece together why things are the way they are. I have not been to Oklahoma City and visited this museum but your video has impact which urges me to do so. I knew I followed you for a reason, thank you for not being afraid to tackle the heavy stuff because that heavy stuff is going to change the world through your eyes.
I have visited many museums which for lack of other words are heavy. They pull at you and break you down and sharing them is often times very hard. But I always think how fortunate I am to be able to go to those places to learn more about things I might not have been able to elsewhere. In doing so I find a way, not always the best, to share those with people who might not have been or cannot go to those same places. That is always my goal, first to inspire others to try to go to places like this and see all the subject matter for themselves, but to also be a place where that exists in a safe place for those who cannot. My channel can be about fun and games but It also will always have depth because I think places like this do need more exposure so people can learn the reality of the world around us and honor those who were lost and those who survived.
I greatly appreciated this video. I do not have a personal tie to Oklahoma City but I do to 9/11 and I cannot say enough how much we need to take incidents like these seriously and never forget. I have numerous friends who have passed as a result of long term illness as a result of being a part of the efforts to save others in the towers that day. Many think that when the rubble is cleared we can move on, but even those who are survivors are not unaffected in the long term. Lives are changed forever as a result of these events. The video was very respectful and I wish more people like yourself would continue to remember all those lost and share their stories because we never should forget.
I am sorry for your losses and thank you for feeling comfortable sharing your story here. I agree that events like these cause a long term effect on not just those who are immediately impacted but those who are a part of the ripple. I think that is why it is so important to step away from my typically jovial fun light hearted content and cover serious locations and subject matters from time to time. Stories like these need to be told and heard and if I can lend my platform to them even for a day I hope that it can help someone to be inspired to visit and learn more or provide a context for those who cannot. Thank you again for sharing.
I really appreciate all you do on your channel. Videos like these are what set you apart from the other channels because you realize the value that locations like this have and the impact that going to them can make on others. I want to say thank you for visiting not only the museum but the memorial and taking the time to share the sentiments of those which perished on that grim day.
Thank you for those words. I really just hope to use my platform not just for the fun locations but also to make an impact and sharing the stories which are lesser known or less visited as attractions. These places are important.
The impact that seeing that baby’s shoe just had on me 😥 I didn’t expect to be so moved by this to tears.
agreed... there were so many personal items there that were discovered in the rubble and they way they have curated them together to share their stories pulls at your heart while punching you in the gut at the same time
I have family in the Oklahoma City area, on the day this happened we were trying to call them and their phones were busy non-stop. Knowing they didn't work in the building gave us some relief but still not fully aware if there were more bombs in the area we were on pins and needles all day. No one should have to endure what the people of that city did that day. The rest of us were watching scared but the people of OKC they dealt with something very different.
I agree... the impact it had on the city was astounding. We actually picked up a video in the gift shop as we left that has some additional information about OKC as a whole and what has brought it up from the beginning up until present day, while the bombing is only one part of the video it really shows the struggles the OKC was having up to that point so this was just the tipping point for many in way of hardship. What they have been able to accomplish since as a community as a result of them banning together is nothing short of a miracle.
I remember that day very vividly. My brother worked in law enforcement and called and told us to stay home if we could because they thought all the federal buildings were under attack. He knew I worked only a few blocks from one and was concerned. Everyone was in high alert and they blocked off streets leading to federal structures.
Thank you for sharing your experience on that day.
Your voice in sharing this was well thought and respectful. Thank you for providing this kind of video content, really appreciate you representing this site for all of us to see that have not been there. The final tribute at the end had me in tears.
Thank you!! I really wanted to share the location for those who cannot visit and try to encourage those who can to do so. There is a lot of information in text and photos which were not all able to be featured so sharing what I could to make sure the stories of that day were heard was of the utmost importance. I wanted to make sure I shared the names of all the individuals at the end because those people need to be remembered, they were lost in the tragedy and their lives mean a lot even now!!! We need to always honor those people!!
I remember when this happened I was driving to work in then Richardson. I was in traffic because of an accident which had the highway blocked as so many times it does in that area and over the radio I heard the news. I remember seeing others in cars around me also hearing the news and a near panic beginning because at the time they were reporting there could be danger in all the major cities. By the end of the day you could not turn on the television without seeing the terrible images. I remember my husband and I having to tell our kids it was going to be ok but not really feeling it was. When the details emerged I remember thinking to myself that terrible people started this and so many children died as a result and hugged my kids a little harder for a long time.
Thank you for sharing your story Janet. I cannot imagine the feeling of finding out while you were driving down the highway and then not really knowing any additional context... having a cell phone these days is so helpful and without it it would be a very lost immediate feeling.
What a well put together museum and memorial. Documenting such a place has to be difficult, however we were unaware there was a museum at all and this is a place we would be interested in visiting to learn more. Not being from the midwest we didn't know anyone personally attached to the attack. Seeing things on television seemed surreal on the day of and the days following the events, but still it also seemed as though it couldn't be happening here. It is strange how the mind works that way. Even when they were showing the children being pulled from the rubble it was as though it was a third world country on the television. Sadly you are correct, there are so many who allowed themselves to forget these faces and names and move on in ignorance.
A lot of people know about the memorial because of the photos of the chairs that are widely seen online however the museum is something that puts everything into perspective as to the site and the people behind the site and all the events that led to and occurred since. I think seeing the location of the memorial and knowing that once that is where the images which streamed nationwide once happened, that it was the actual location of the building, is such a strange feeling. Seeing that from the window after moving through the many phases of the museum it just really puts into perspective everything.
Oklahoma is actually part of the American south and you will see those strong values and community after visiting this place. Understand this place will change you. It's extremely powerful and many people aren't ready for how emotional the experience leaves them. The biggest takeaway is how the community took something so evil and turned it into everlasting good. We hope you visit it. It's an important place.
Thank you so much very sharing this with us. I was 28 when this happened. Watching your video certainly tugged at my emotions, took my breath away, and brought up some tears. I remember it being on every news station, and was so heartbreaking. I'm not sure I would be able to make it through that museum with dry eyes. Your video was amazing, thank you again for sharing!
You are very welcome. The museum is very hard I agree, it is something which strikes a chord with all of us and in some way is very personal even if we were not there that day. I really wanted to make sure I shared enough of the museum that people would know about this amazing resource while also paying respect to those lost and involved on that day. It was tough, very tough but one I encourage everyone to try to visit once in their lifetime and take at their own pace.
You did a really good job with this video. Took on a hard place and let it speak for itself. Tragic events.
Absolutely tragic. My goal was to share the location with those who watched in hopes of inspiring those who can to visit the museum and learn more all the while providing a video for those who could not that would encapsulate the tragic events while honoring those who were lost that day.
Thank you for sharing this video, I did not know a lot of this information. Very sad.
Very much so. It was a bit harder to film this because I did want to make sure I paid proper respect and handled the heavy topic with care. I definitely encourage you to if you can visit and learn more, it is a somber location but one that shares many stories of those who were lost, those who survived and those who were there to step in and help others.
Omg you outdid yourself on this video. It’s a perfect video. It absolutely shattered my heart to see this happening on that day. Especially when they said it was a daycare inside. I worked with children at the time. It baffles my mind how people can be so heartless. I just don’t understand. But, you did amazing on this video.
Everything about the days events were terrible but I would have to agree, it hurts a bit more when you see children who have yet to even have the option to live life taken in such a violent way. The men who had grievance with the system did more than upheave a government building they took innocent lives.
My wife and I just watched this video and it sparked a conversation amongst us about where we were. Both of us were just out of college when this happened and recall the news coverage. It was ongoing, every channel, you couldn't escape it. They showed the lines of people lining up for the memorial and it just felt helpless to see that many people but not being able to do anything. When 9/11 happened it was the same empty feeling, watching on as the world stopped but kept moving at the same time. We all have become desensitized to seeing things because now there are more and more incidents that are occurring. School violence is constantly on the tv, gunmen seem to open fire every other week and organizations are boosted which support violence such as the January incidents. Our world is a dark place because there is a blatant disregard for facing reality. Thank you for sharing this, should we all remember so we cannot forget. Thank you for starting a conversation.
I do understand the feeling of helplessness when it comes to places like these. Especially visiting and learning so many of the details and knowing there is literally nothing that I personally could do to help. My goal in doing these videos is to have an open area for discussion and education. If even a single person sees the videos I put out about serious topics and it makes them think, read, question or learn something then that is a step toward a positive change.
How powerful this museum is. I cannot imagine being there on that day or the weeks following. Thank you for sharing this, I didn't know this museum was there.
Absolutely powerful!!! That is a good way to look at it powerful, it shares so many dynamics of emotion and all that went into rescue and the events.
I wasn't sure if I could make it through this video. You are right just seeing the first little bit after you move past the board room I was destroyed. It is amazing how sad you can become even not having a person you know that was there. Very moving.
I agree, I personally did not know anyone there on that day, however the sadness I think stems from seeing the worst in humanity met by the sharp opposition of the best of humanity as people came together to help one another. It is sad to know that so many perished at the hands of such monsters and to see the stories of those who survived knowing the lasting impact of a single days events on their lives just shows you that life can change in an instant. I always say no days are promised so we wake up thankful that we have another day to adventure. Places like this make it even more apparent.
Seems like a well put together museum. So terrible that things like this happen to the innocent. Sometimes this world does not make any sense.
I agree... innocent people should never be impacted by someone else taking our their frustrations. I feel like the events of that day were terrible in so many ways. When you look at it from the perspective of McVey, sure he was frustrated by what he thought was a broken system ,but did that mean he should kill innocent people? NO... babies, adults, people who he had never met just going about their day.... his actions are inexcusable. Never is violence the answer. No matter how frustrated he was, that was NOT the answer! His frustrations become null when it harms others...
I remember when this happened, this video is so heart wrenching and sad .
I wanted to make sure I shared it even though it was hard to do so, there are so many who currently are within the RUclips generation who were either too young or not even born when this event happened. For those I wanted to make sure I used my platform to share the events of that terrible day. For those who do remember I wanted to share the museum and let some of those who had not visited or might not think they could visit see the thought that was put into this space to never forget those who lost their lives on that day. Being young myself when this happened, the details of the event were never this clear, visiting was gut wrenching but clarifying also.
Bunny you did a wonderful job with this video
Thank you.. I really just wanted to share the location with others so they could see the impact of the day in hopes that they will visit and for those who are unable to visit the museum to give them a glimpse into the thought that went into creating it and the subject. I think it is very important to always share the heavy places also because those are the ones which impact us the most and have the most to take away. Honoring those who were lost on that day in addition to the survivors only seems right.
I agree. Hard topic, but you handled it with care.
I made it all the way to the end and now I look like I have been chopping onions. So sad.
It truly is tragic, sorry about the end, I wanted to honor those who were lost because I think it is important that we continue to remember their names.
Tough to watch, but so well done. Thank you for this, the respect, compassion, and sensitivity.
Absolutely welcome, I really wanted to make sure I honored those who were lost that day and those also who survived by sharing their stories in a way that others could have a better understanding of the museum and what it shares. For those who are able to visit I encourage them to do so, and for those who are not, I hope that this video will allow them to have a better overall understanding of the day's events and how it impacted the city and the country as a whole.
Does the app work for all smartphones? I believe this would greatly impact the experience here. Thank you for sharing that aspect.
I believe it is android and iPhone compatible
In my lifetime, I have seen the National Guard in the streets a few times. I remember this day was one of those days and I saw them before knowing what had happened. I skipped over watching television that morning. I was in silence in my car because I need a morning that did not have noise, we all have those days. My day was changed dramatically when I drove down and encountered the guard near our downtown. I do not live in Oklahoma City and I still experienced the impact of this day. I cannot fathom what it would be to have been in OKlahoma City.
Thank you for sharing your story. I completely agree, knowing the feeling of that day in OKC is hard to understand.
Such a sad place to visit. We have been here and did not take the kids because it is not a place that you want to be rushed through. They spent the day with the grandparents while we visited and it took a handful of hours to go through fully. Really hard to handle some of the information. The memorial room leaves you with chills seeing the small items of each person. The big trial room made me so mad. I think that you are right, people need to visit.
I agree that it would be tough to visit with kids, especially younger ones who aren't able to stay in one place very long. There are a lot of deep topics covered and though they do have the interactive exhibits I would say this is a mature museum for most.
tough one to watch but good job on the filming and sharing.
tough to film but something I felt was a necessary stop to share because many have not been and if they can they should and for those who cannot I wanted to share something to the space to show them more completely what the museum is about and has to offer.
Our children are a bit young to visit this museum, but we hope in a few years to share this with them so they can understand the events which took place. You are absolutely right, there is an entire generation that does not know about the event of that day of 9/11 and these are things which they should better understand in order to know the wicked the world has right here in our own backyard in our history. My wife and I spend a lot of time trying to teach our children acceptance and love but do not want to turn a blind eye to the injustices and tragedies which have shaped the country for the good and bad. We need to educate the kids to change the conversation going forward instead of continuing to repeat these type of incidents. There are a lot of people like the men mentioned in this video who still exist today and do things under the radar until events like this past January happen, this needs to stop for generations to come so my kids and others can grow up not living in fear of the "bad men"
I agree on all the points you just mentioned. I think that visiting sites like this are very difficult to do so, and even more so when trying to share them in a video which will allow others to see and understand the subject matter. I think that those stories need to be told however so we can learn from them and change the world one person at a time. I think that you are right on track sharing the good and bad with the kids when they are ready, you have to know what has happened so you can be a part of the change. Education is key always!!
Good on you to teach your kids first hand. Parents run from this responsibility and let the tv teach their kids these days then blame everyone else when their kid grows up screwed up. You are doing right my man.
My aunt worked in one of the buildings right beside the Federal Building. She suffered from smoke inhalation when she tried to evacuate after she thought that the explosion happened in her own building. She ran into the street and right into the smoke.
I do hope your aunt was ok... thank you for sharing your personal account of the day, I am hoping through this video conversations like yours can be shared to allow people to see the impact and chat about reality of that day and how it played a part in how they view things today.
Wow Bunny. Not an easy video to watch, but quality for sure. I cried, not ashamed to say. This is our country's ugly green toe and not talked about alot. Thank You for the coverage and reminder life is a gift. It can change at any moment.
Absolutely! I remind myself every time I go to a place that has a grim past that the people who are represented did not have the same opportunity to wake up and go on an adventure like I did that day and so each day is to be celebrated and cherished. Coming to a place like this reminds you even further that even waking up to tackle an adventure might not result in fulfillment of that, life is never promised and because of that the moments we have, have to have meaning. I really wanted to make sure in doing this video that I shared the same emotions you feel when walking through the museum itself, it is a tough one and this only shares a portion of the information provided. I also wanted to make sure that I honored those who lost their lives that day in a way that was true and real and gave them a voice in the midst of this instead of just highlighting the terrible people who took those voices from them. Thank you for watching!!
@@BunnyPlaysHere Chica your channel rocks. Your spirit stirs emotions I didn't know I had. Keep getting after it, you've got the golden persona but proven you can tackle not so easy stuff too. Own it. You deserve it.
So sad. I don't know if I could go there and see all that.
It really was very sad. Hard to read all the details of some of the stories without getting a knot in your throat.
When I tell you this video just moved me to tears, that doesn’t do it justice. Sobbing.
It is definitely moving in person as well.
I am always impressed by your quality on this channel and the subjects you choose to share. I know many who are on vacations likely will not be impressed to visit a location like this, however I find that it is through these locations that we can better appreciate the quality of life which our vacations afford us. Life is fleeting with the moments of it passing us by unnoticed. By reflecting on a location like this we can more truly understand the value of the life we each have. I recall this day in history and the one which triggered these cowardly men to act in the manner they did. Both events were tragic for many reasons. Sadly, we have not learned from these either of the events. I can only hope with young people like yourself being more proactive that the winds of change are starting to blow.
Thank you sir!! I really wanted to make sure that I shared this and allowed for others to see what the museum has to offer should they be able to or not be able to visit. I think it is very important to have conversations about these topics and to aspire to be better as individuals.
Seeing those babies knowing mine is around the same age just tears me apart. I don't know what I would do without my daughter, these poor families.
Absolutely horrific to even think about.
That doesn't seem like it should have been 25 years ago. I am still baffled how we let extremist do this to our country. All those lost on that day deserved better, all those that survived deserved better, and we as American people deserve better even now.
I know, when I was doing my lead up research to visiting this museum and memorial I noticed the length of time which has passed, it doesn't seem it has been that long to you or I but to those who experienced it, I assume it has felt like a lifetime since they were able to see their loved ones. For that the video needed to be made to encourage others to go and see and learn more so possibly we can start to make changes one person at a time.
Martin Luther King said you cannot drive darkness out with darkness only light and hate cannot be driven out with hate only love. The guys here didn't like how things were going and didn't handle it by doing things the right way. People need to stop presuming that they can take their frustrations out on others. Doing this makes you no better than the people you say are unfair, you become the problem. Look at all these people who were harmed by these guys basically having a temper tantrum because they didn't like something.
I agree with MLK on this one... people cannot expect different to come from the same.... it is like the quote says the definition of insanity is repeating the same behavior but expecting different results
This was a terrible day in history. I still remember it well. I don't mind videos like this because it helps us remember. I saw your post about the heavy subject, you keep right on doing videos which make us remember, we should never forget.
Thank you!! I really wanted to share this so that those who have not been able to go could see how well done the museum is. The impact of this single place by visiting is astounding. It is moving and yes you are right we should never forget these kind of incidents because they are tragic and it is a disservice to those lost and those who lost loved ones to gloss them over as though they are in the past and do not exist. There is much to be learned from heavy subjects.
Beautiful video! I am new to OKC and visited this museum, today. I agree, this is a very important part of our past, and most importantly, this museum reminds us that love will always triumph over hate. Piece and love to those who are no longer with us and the survivors of this horrifying tragedy.
How did that one guy get out already and get fed protection? Taxpayers are paying for him to be protected, that’s messed up.
as is the way of the world we live in.
Welcome to the participation trophy, you do something really messed up and you still reap the rewards of being an American citizen. There should be a rule that if you do something this bad you don't get those protections anymore.
That's what I am sayin. How is he protected but we have people gettin killed in their own homes by police.
I was unable to like this video, perhaps you have the likes disabled because of the subject but I was very impressed by the museum and your presentation of it. It likely is hard to do videos about these topics but I am glad you did because the museum really hit home as a person who remembers this well.
It is ok about the likes, that isn't what this video is about. We can worry about RUclips likes on another more lighthearted video, this is more so about the museum and I am glad you were able to watch and take away something from it. That was my goal in sharing.
Such a terrible event. Thank you for sharing this museum, I had heard of it but never been there and didn't know if I should or not because I didn't know if I could deal with it. Seeing this makes me realize I should go to pay respect to all those who were victims. Thank you for sharing this.
Absolutely terrible... I pondered sharing but knew that I needed to do so because there are so many that have similar thoughts to you. It is very daunting to think of visiting a place with such a history, I wanted to share the location in a. way that would allow those unable to attend a window into the museum to see what is there and hope to share the education of the day in a more complete way. I am glad you are considering visiting, it is a place you will want to take slowly and prepare yourself for before entering.
Sad I missed you coming through Okc. Maybe next time. 🎈
Life did change! 🙏🏻
I pass through that area pretty frequently and do adventures for the channel ... I have a lot of ground to cover still in the city!!
@@BunnyPlaysHere give me a holler anytime! I admire travelers and someday may get to do more of my own. Thank you for your responses. Have an awesome day! 🎈
Mans inhumanity to man. Natural man is not good but with God he can be
I remember going for my school field trip and my favorite part was the recorded meeting. The way the doors opened behind us after the bomb had exploded and all those people on the screen just made me cry. Having to walk through those doors that opened and to see all those things that got destroyed was devastating
The children’s faces at the end. Why did these men think it was ok to do any of this, but mostly killing those babies. Why!?!
I ask this also. I don't believe that logical thinking people could ever even begin to understand how these men justified their actions against others in order to prove their own points against the government. Those men were selfish terrible people!
He was right about big government. Just went off the deep end on what to do about it. Can never stop evil with evil
We as citizens have the responsibility to communicate our thoughts with elected officials not to take it into our own hands. That never solves anything.
I do recommend it. It took me a long time before I went. My parents had been and told me I needed to go, but with heavy subjects I do not like to take them lightly and wanted to find a way to share here so that people could know it was there but also to serve as a resource for those who were not able to go. The museum is vast and my video only encompasses some of the things there because there are a lot of very graphic images and tons of text that I could not even begin to dive into fully. It is very well done and having been now I think wow, this took so much work to honor those who were lost that day correctly while also getting to the root of the issue. Thank you for watching and I do hope you visit and can see it for yourself.
Is there a museum for the Whether Underground bombings? 🤔
If you want the truth that's the first major time the nation witnessed domestic terrorism.
I have never seen a museum in regard to that, doesn't mean there isn't one just haven't seen one.
Great job covering this site and the story. I’m wondering if you ever went to the Branch Davidian site in Waco (I see you’ve been to Waco, but I didn’t see this). It would be an interesting video compliment to this one, since McV** cited it as his “reason” for the bombing. Of course violence is never the answer, and there can be no excuse for this. However, our government and in a way, every voting citizen, played a part in setting this lunatic in motion. Nothing happens in a vacuum.
I have not yet been, when I was last there they were not open. At some point I will visit and see what is there currently and do a video. I am always up for a new place which can teach me something about things. I remember when that event occurred also and seeing it for days and days on the tv thinking how scary it was because it was in Texas where I lived. I hope to go add to the puzzle pieces of the stories at some point to fully tie together the reality of being there.
Terrible, just terrible *what happened not your video
Absolutely terrible.
What a sad place to visit.
I agree!! A sad place to visit however one that helps us to remember the horrible things which happen in the world around us and the lessons we can learn about strength emerging from it. We do those lost honor when we learn their names and lessons.
😥😢
Absolutely!! A tragic event!!!
So, he does one of the worst bombings in American history and then escapes in a car with no plates? All the planning and he fails on this.
I had just turned 9 years old 3 days before the bombing did I do remember things my grandparents took new and my sister to okc maybe the year after the bombing I have pictures from what they had at the time
Thank you for sharing your story. This event changed the way that the world works. it is really sad to know that this event happened and so important that we never forget the people who lost their lives.
