I won't sue Donald Trump if I get coronavirus! Supporters wanting to go to his mask-free comeback MAGA rally in Tulsa have to sign disclaimer to get tickets

President Trump's supporters who want tickets for his Tulsa rally next Friday have to agree not to sue the president's campaign and other entities if they contract COVID-19.  
'By clicking register below, you are acknowledging that an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present,' the form said.
It goes on to say that by attending the June 19 rally 'you and any guests voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19 and agree not to hold Donald J. Trump for President ... liable for any illness or injury.'

The Tulsa, Oklahoma event marks the first official campaign rally for President Trump since the U.S. shutdown businesses due to the spreading coronavirus

By obtaining tickets through the form, rally attendees are also not able to sue the Bank of Oklahoma Center, the venue for the rally, ASM Global, which is the venue's management company and 'any of their affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, or volunteers,' the disclaimer said. 
The Trump campaign officially announced the Tulsa, Oklahoma rally Thursday afternoon, after Trump discussed the event Wednesday at the White House. 
Trump's Wednesday announcement made waves after the nation has seen two weeks of protests over the death of George Floyd, a black Minneapolis man, at the hands of a white police officer. 

The date is significant because it's Juneteenth, which marks the day the last slaves were informed of their freedom via the Emancipation Proclamation. 
The city is signficant because Tulsa was where one of the worst racial episodes in U.S. history occurred 99 years ago. 
On May 31 and June 1, 1921, white residents attacked and killed black residents in the Greenwood district of Tulsa that was referred to at the time as 'Black Wall Street.' 
Stores and homes were looted and burned. White assailants even used airplanes to drop firebombs, some eyewitnesses said. 
There's a continued search for mass graves. 
Younger audiences learned this piece of horrific American history last year when it was depicted on the HBO show 'Watchmen.' 
Trump says he'll begin campaign rallies again with Oklahoma

President Trump addressed a crowd in Texas Thursday about the 'Transition to Greatness' as the country tries to reopen after closing down to stop the spread of coronavirus
President Trump addressed a crowd in Texas Thursday about the 'Transition to Greatness' as the country tries to reopen after closing down to stop the spread of coronavirus

'This isn't just a wink to white supremacists - he's throwing them a welcome home party,' Sen. Kamala Harris said in reaction to the rally plans, according to the Associated Press. Harris, a California Democrat, is a vice presidential contender.
Sherry Gamble Smith, the president of the Black Wall Street Chamber of Commerce, named after the neighborhood that was attacked, said, 'Tulsa is outraged.' 
'To choose the date, to come to Tulsa, is totally disrespectful and a slap in the face to ever happen,' Gamble Smith told the AP. She suggested at the least the Trump campaign should 'change it to Saturday the 20th.'  
The Trump rally could attract more 'Black Lives Matter' protests, which have had public health officials concerned could contribute to the coronavirus spread. 
And at the rally itself, the Trump campaign has not announced any social distancing plans, though spokesman Tim Murtaugh told DailyMail.com, 'There will be health precautions.' 
On Thursday, the president traveled to Dallas, Texas for an event that touched on policing, race relations and COVID-19. 
And despite Surgeon General Jerome Adams sitting alongside Trump and touching on best practices to combat the virus - including wearing masks - the auditorium's seats were filled and only a few attendees sported faceware.
