Domestic Violence a Felony?

Isn't this type of post discouraged? Just writing a few words to post a link to their website on a thread they started falls under the title "self-promotion", IMHO.

I thought it was pretty interesting and it wasn't wrote about in any form at all on this forum. But if you feel that way I will stop, out of respect to this forum.

Just bring it here instead of just posting a link. I would read it, but don't want to be made to leave this forum to join another conversation.

Thanks.

I would like to but I best not, there are people on here that would say I was just spreading fear of domestic violence. []

I don't think anyone would feel you were trying to spread anything, Porky, unless of course that word "proboards" were inserted into the link.

I thought you were afraid of Hannibal Lecter showing up if I posted such stories? I wouldn't want to do anything that might scare you or bring harms way to you, Rico.

He won't post here, he's afraid of having to defend the factual basis of his posts.

SAY WHAT......are you calling the Tulsa World, KOTV, KTUL, KJRH and Fox23 liars?

I will say I did post here years back but the personal attacks from you and a couple of others in your forum bully squad left me no choice but to go elsewhere.

Looks as though nothing has changed and it's sad because this forum has some great members, fortunate for them you and your crew choose to leave them be.

By the way, Swake. I'm still trying to figure out why you would want me to post the stories here when you stated I was only creating fear by doing so. Did you go out and buy yourself a pair of Depends this weekend?

ON the cell phone tangent:

Studies have proven that conversation is a distraction to drivers.

If you take the cell phone out of the equation (hands free device/conversation with a passenger) the conversation remains a distraction.

Aside from texting, dialing, or finding a cell phone to answer - the phone is not the problem.  The distraction of conversation is the problem.  So, unless we are going to ban conversations while driving a cell phone ban is another Big Brother farce keeping us safe from ourselves.

If a person is not in control of their vehicle because of a cell phone, reading a news paper, or putting on makeup - it is reckless driving. If they crash because of such a distraction it is failure to maintain control of your vehicle.   Why not use the laws that are already in place?  Swerving wildly - pull them over.  Who cares what the reason is.

/you can go back to bickering about some other forum now.

I'm not calling them liars, but if you would like to have a debate on the quality of the local news, particularly local broadcast media and you want to be in the position of defending them, let's go for it. I think everyone here knows you would have a very losing hand.  

And Porky, I haven't attacked you personally. Now or in the past, but I certainly have attacked the content of your posts like your long time rant about how the arena was never going to be built and how it was all a con. Attacking the factual nature of your posts is not a personal attack, it is debate. That you post half baked crap and can't defend your positions is not my fault.

However, right now I'm going to attack your past forums which I have read a few times. In just those few times they have been proven to be cesspools full of the worst of humanity. Racism, Classism, every ism you can name with a strong helping of sophomoric sexual innuendo.

The only things that weren't allowed on those boards were facts, reality and basic decency. The people that posted on your forum have to be the idiots that are on the Tulsa World site today.

Once again you have proven me accurate on what I had to say about you. I'd of given you a shovel but obviously you aren't in need of one.

I just went to the Tulsa Crime Forum site...

The administrator had posted 87 times and everybody else had posted comments 20 times total, and one poster was 12 of those. The administrator had started 30 threads on Tulsa Crime, but only 7 of them had any other comments.

This forum seems to be a one way conversation only promoted on other forums.

Inattentive Driving is what the police are now charging Cellphone related accidents with and the other things you mentioned. Police are the first to say that cellphone usage is a major cause for accidents but they use them while driving around town as well. Trying to eat and drive is another problem they have had issues with.  

The ones that get me the most are those driving around with a cellphone in one hand and smoking a cigarette with the other hand. I often wonder if they're using their toes to drive with.

So what's your point, never seen an Admin actual do something before?

Last week was the first week for the website and I'm pleased on how it went. I don't look for it to be a daily converstion site but a site where people can find out all about crime issues.

RM, was there a reason you didn't mention how many "views" all the threads had? I'd list it here for you but I'm not one to brag.

I've given your thoughts and remarks a lot of heavy thought, Swake.

You've open my eyes in so many ways, fear being the most.

So I've rebuilt my website with your thoughts being my paint brush. I hope you like it and see that I appreciate your comments in making a better Tulsa. []
