I read it before there was any comment. The info was all there when it first was posted.
You are ignorant AND a liar. You better shut up while the shutting up is good.

HA!..I think I'll just pack my computer up and throw it in the trash ...because I'm scared. Shut up and go fetch on someone else...I assure you, I am far more educated than you know

Truth is, I come on here to read about the scum of Tulsa because OKC has far less crime. Truth hurts

Those who must brag about their education are those who don't feel secure, in spite of it.

Trust me, if I were bragging about my education there would be a list of certifications in my post. I know this will made some of you very sad but this will be my last post because going back and forth like little children honestly questions my intelligence. I still stand by what I said ..when I first read the article it didn't mention anything about the person owning a pool hall/bar. It's funny that more people would rather argue about rather a post mentioned something or not than to vocus on the actual story and the fact that some innocent old man was a victim to some thug's. So, go ahead and respond with your rebuttle...think hard about it ..but know in your mind I wont respond back ...

Darn, should have proof-read my post before submitting it...I realize the mistakes ....thanks English majors

my 84 year old uncle always had a loaded gun in his truck wherever he went, plus a loaded gun in every room of his house. thank God he never had to use them!

What the what wrote:

Funny how people's opinions change. Here an 80 year old is defended (and rightfully so) as a capable individual. Yet the 76 year old truck driver involved in the WRT accident was castigated as a feeble old coot. Truth is that it depends on the individual. It is so unfair to make across the board assumptions.

AMEN!!!!!!!!! well stated

This just turns my stomach. To think a 80 yr old has probably been working all his life then some snakes in the grass take what he had. If he would have had a heart attack and died these low lifes would have been charged with murder. But they can't think past their cravings for the next fix of drugs, and really wouldn't care if their melted brains were working. Some fine parenting they had.

I could have sworn the Federal Marshal program knew the where abouts or approximate location of a lot of the registared gang members. Stake out their houses and neighborhoods. If they spit on the side walk arrest them, anything else perferate them.

In America we are only allowed to go after the Mexicans. The black gang members are now hush hush sh!t aint happenin' Chicago the murder capital of the world mentality.

I wish somebody got to use them. We stand alone against them. Our justice system only cares about $

Can't stand lazy, no good thugs. I think when the police catch them they should take them out back and beat the you know what out of them. And then let the 80 year old man lose with a bat on them. Then put them in stocks so the rest of Tulsa and beat the **** out of them. Then and only then, they will be allowed in court and have the book thrown at them. Maybe other no goods like them wouldn't want to do that line of work anymore and get real jobs, like a real man. Not some cowards that are no good for nothing. That would make my day...

A few more young punks. They'll run into someone eventually with a gun. Then they'll cry for their Mama. Mama won't be able to save them.

In a real world, we would go after mass murderers like Bin laden & put his head on a stick in times square(to use as a urinal) Nah" we are now politically correct. It's being used to manipulate the masses (into believing the upper eschelon & their gov't really cares about them).

You're assuming that the 76-year-old driver felt some financial obligation to keep driving. Did it occur to you that maybe he enjoyed driving, rather than slowly dying while sipping lemonade on the front porch of a retirement home?

Yes I was assuming but not in a sarcastic way. I have a father-in-law who is a truck driver and has been since he started working and loves his job as well. In today's society it is easy to assume people at that age are still working because of financial burdens. It is not meant to affend anyonye.
