Why I'm voting "YES" tomorrow Joy In Mudville

Maybe not, after the numerous complaints to KTOK, not about him opposing MAPS3 which I'm sure everyone would support his right to do, but his constant name calling (Mayor a liar, ex-Mayor a jerk, on and on), it's probably just a matter of days before they announce that he's taking a leave of absence for medical reasons.

I would prefer illegal immigrants get a job and work than not.

Is there anyone here who remembers Downtown and old bricktown in the 60's and 70's
Full of bars, dives, pawn shops and dont dare go east of the rail line unless you want to be a statistic.

I am quiet pleased with what I have seen . OKCITY is after all the capital city of our state so whats wrong with some urban pride.

THough I dont live in OKC now I do encourage my friends and relatives who do live there to vote yes.

ANd yes I do know a bunch of PO's from OKC and none of them live in OKC.

Why should they when the city provides them take home cars to NOrman. Shawnee, Guthrie and Edmond......etc.........Oh and retired copper so...Im not cop bashing I just know the inside score.

But their under paid after all.

Vote yes folks

You know the inside score? Where are you retired from. Certainly not OCPD or you'd know that they aren't allowed to take their cars home if they live outside of the city limits. You probably mean well, but please get your facts straight.

Your wrong, my brother-in-law is a Police Lt., he works out of the Hefner Station, lives in Tuttle and has had a take home car for several years.

Well there you go, turn him in. The FS I work at has an ever shrinking parking lot because of all the police cruisers parked out back by officers who aren't allowed to take them home. Because they live out of the city limits. You get to do your civic duty. Let us know how it works out at the lake this week, once you tell him you're turning him in.

Did your plans change, you were scheduled to go with us ?

You need to go back and read your posts. You've got the wrong guy. But I would like to hear how it goes when you ask him why he gets to take his car home to Tuttle when all the PO's who park them behind my station can't take them out of the city limits. Do your civic duty.

Ask Markkk Shannon. On air, he just reported a police friend of his, just sent him, an arrest report. Why are Officers of the Law, reporting to Markkk Shannon? Why don't they arrest Markk Shannon for arson threats?

Certain officers are allowed to take the car out of the city. It depends on the job they have.

Wow! You are exactly the problem with this country. I could go off on you for an hour.

Thanks Mike. It's a very small percentage then.

Be careful Junkie. Don't give to many details. I'll drive up to Hefner station and go through the list. I will find your brother in law and I will STOP the taking of his car home and DEMAND he be reprimanded if he's violating policy.

I hope he's not someone that I really like, but it wouldn't matter. Don't get me mistaken for someone who turns a blind eye. Because I DON'T and he'll have your spewing at the mouth bragging to thank!!!! The folks that know me know better. I don't care WHO your brother in law is. To be honest guys doing that DISGUST me and I have no qualms about telling them so.

I actually have half a mind to do so anyway.

Certain officers are allowed to take the car out of the city. It depends on the job they have. This is true. If he's one of those folks then you were just giving "Half truths"...which the YES side is good at...

What, no snarky little emoticon just to make sure we get your point? Heard your threat?

: : :

Stop threatening other posters.

Children!!

I know, mom, but I'm so tired of it all.

Wow. I thought you'd jump all over an OFFICER wasting poor tax dollars driving a City car to an unauthorized location....mmmm

As long as he's a yes man...he's good to go huh....you guys never cease to amaze me....

And that's no threat. That was a warning that too many details may not be a good idea.

oh here you go...

I have also never heard so many whiners. Everything someone says is a "threat"...or "personal attack"...

That's what our country is turning into. Whiners. Let him defend himself for bragging about violating policy...Geez

I agree this may or may not be a violation of City policy. But WE do not know that. If it is of concern, call the Action Center.

Many of us, for some time, have enjoyed civilized, if not sometimes chippy, discussion on these boards regarding what happens in our fair city. It has not been until the MAPS 3 vote started coming up and new posters decided to chime in - testosterone-bulged and ready to force their bravado on everyone - that the civility has taken a mighty turn for the worse. And I''m sorry, but much of the incivility began with some of the new posters. Just sayin'.

It's one thing to have rational discussion, another altogether to make threats - veiled or not - about another poster and/or his or her relatives, regardless of where they work.

Was the other poster over-sharing? Perhaps. But is this really the venue to make threats? No.

Fritter. Just stop. move on. my post wasn't meant for you. Junkie doesn't need your help...

I don't need your whining. I got it. Your easily offended and like nosing in anothers post. You like to sit idly by when you see someone doing wrong and turn a blind eye.

Let junkie respond.

You sure back down quick!!!!!!!!!!

I don't take Ironhd76 as a threat, with his screen name, I assume he rides a Harley so he can't be that bad, (I have 3 myself)
He also states in his post HE HAS HALF A MIND, and we all know if he had a WHOLE MIND, he'd be a yes vote.

Yeah. And you have to quote when making a reply ... which substantially deteriorates the relative tranquility one gets by putting a poster on one's ignore list! Arrrgh ...
