@krassenstein The froze the video just before the wall fell on him, Iβm guessing he didnβt make it. The woman in the doorway fled leaving him behind.
@AlisonMaloni Thank you, maβam. A former OKC mayor tried to nickname us The Big Friendly. I always thought it sounded kind of trite, but people here are very friendly and will go out of their way to help you. Welcome, I hope you enjoy our sunsets. Theyβre especially beautiful with clouds.
@sammiecoup@davidfholt I checked out your page after your previous comment so I already knew of your antisemitism. Spreading your prejudice to this page only further damages your credibility.
@ArmedBearCaucus@sammiecoup@davidfholt Not βdrainingβ money from the city, the voters chose to invest extra money. Before MAPS OKC was either declining or stagnant. Now the city has a positive future.
@ArmedBearCaucus@sammiecoup@davidfholt The voters have repeatedly voted to tax themselves to improve the city, and the payoff has been massive. Including a World Champion NBA team. OKC has been elevated to a major league city with a greatly improved national reputation. MAPS has transformed the city.
@sammiecoup@davidfholt The restaurant business has always been tough. Most new restaurants close within 5 years. OKC is not dying. It has made amazing progress. And remember, OKC voters chose to build a new arena and pay for it. Nothing was forced on the city. Itβs what the people want.
@sammiecoup@davidfholt Itβs not about "the billionaires.β Itβs about improving and advancing the city. It ensures the Thunder remain long-term with all of its economic, social, and publicity benefits. Weβll get the elite concerts, an NBA All-Star game, etc. Our money will be returned many times over.
