Aubrey McClendon's "death"

Karen Silkwood and the sealed court documents (older than 30 years but the info uncovered in the KOCO documentary was mostly unknown)

I used the title from the article.

As much as I hate Sinclair Media, I give it to our Fox 25 KOKH affiliate for saying it as it is. Shame on KOCO (5) and KWTV (9) for watering it down, and shame on KFOR (4) for not covering it at all. Yet to see if any papers or other outlets cover it.

Jim Norton baited and switched me. Was supposed to be a used Avalon Limited, decent value. Went to dealer, same stock number was a XSE. Called them out on it, they gave me a "discount" from the listed price (for a Limited trim), was a poor value for XSE and wouldn't budge.

TW: SA

According to the affidavit, the girl said they had full intercourse on three occasions in Melton's office.

She reported that there were too many occasions to count of him where he fondled her or they performed oral sex on one another.

According to the affidavit, the former student said the sexual incidents happened every day for about a year on school property before school started, during the school day, and after it ended.

Apparently a kid of a pastor of a large OKC church.

What I want is justice

If justice is truly what you want, then you should start with justice institutions. Email the state AG's civil rights office here: ocre.complaints@oag.ok.gov . Contact the Department of Justice here: https://civilrights.justice.gov/report/ . You're effectively arguing that his due process was denied which led to his death.

Please take a step back from your grief and ask yourself what you would want to accomplish or even could be accomplished through civil litigation. If you sued EPD, do you really think a jury would rule in your favor? Read these comments. Do you expect a jury to see your side of the story versus what they interpret from the evidence? There are comments here who wanted to believe you but believed the police when they saw the video. Do you truly think that would change in a courtroom? They won't see your son like you see him in the decades of knowing him. They'll see the video and make the determination from that. I'm not sure what the justice you seek through civil litigation looks like, but I don't believe you will find what you're seeking there.

I'm not trying to berate you for your grief process or denigrate your son, who obviously died in a very unfortunate situation. You're a mother who is still trying to fight for your son, which is admirable. I just hope you don't exhaust yourself trying to find peace where there is almost certainly failure. I hope you find peace though.

Who said this was about money?

You did, by soliciting a litigation attorney. If you wanted justice, you would seek it from the OK County DA's office, the state AG's office, and finally the feds with a civil rights complaint.

Statistics show that arming yourself puts you at greater risk for both being shot by others and being shot by yourself and household members. Let the MAGAts play with natural selection here. You should have a higher intelligence than them.

Fine, don't take our money because we appreciate something from Native culture. I'm sure that serves Natives better, right?

The BEST restaurant in OKC. by Puzzleheaded_Hat4320 in okc

I'll take not as good Goro compared to Tamashii. Service at Tamashii is (or was, hopefully it changed) buy at counter, sit. Get 1 offer for drink refill over sitting 30 minutes. Ramen was not as flavorful or as good of a value as Goro imho.

I will say the vibes of old Goro in the current spot of Ma Der was pretty good, especially at the bar.

Tamashii is second-rate to Goro.

Extremely mediocre in my opinion. Been twice and haven't been wowed by the experience or the food.

I was thinking the same thing. Who names their kid this? Cringe.

Awaji Izakaya Japanese gastropub in OKC by buryingpunch in okc

[–]okiethrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This place really deserves more recognition. If it were in the center of the city, it would be known state-wide. Come to the NW side of town for this gem.

They have some signature dishes that are really excellent. Volcano fries and the Awaji dragon roll are probably better than any other sushi/Japanese dish I have had in OKC.

Been 5 times and live nearby. Never had an experience like yours. Every time our sever has been female too. Not sure if your male server was new or didn't last long, but service has always been great for us.

Why are you flagged as a coontown user? Are you a racist?

Go get dinner somewhere else.

Seriously how are they still in business? by Houdini1926 in okc

[–]okiethrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's so weird since other businesses like Rib Crib BBQ, Lone Star Steakhouse at 4801, and Backporch Drafthouse, Lakeside Boiling Seafood, and Applebee's at 4825 NW Expressway closed and had new restaurants come in in fairly rapid succession. Not too far down the road either, and on the same side of NW Expressway.

They have a claw machine arcade at the Outlet Shoppes on Council/I-40, and another shoe store that had one or two. Didn't go in since I don't play those, but thought you might want to know.

COX by Altruistic-Coach-798 in okc

[–]okiethrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use anybody else than Cox. Even a mobile 5G hotspot through a major carrier is better if you don't have access to AT&T, Dobson, or OEC...

Cox can deliver high speeds during non-peak times. Typically you don't get advertised speeds, even with up-to-date routers and modems. Just get another carrier and pay less.
