I don't believe it. This is a clever piece of disinformation put out by his political enemies with the assistance of the Liberal Media, that far left Tulsa World, the Trilateral Commission, and the International Communist Conspiracy.

Rice visited a doctor Monday morning due to chest pain, and afterward decided to withdraw his candidacy because of long-term heart-health issues.
"I really wanted to try. I really, really, really wanted to do it, but it's just not my time," he said.

Isn't this the same excuse for closing Shotgun Sam's?

His latest rant is that the Hatch Act prevents any current employee of the TPD from running for public office since the TPD has received federal grants/funding.  But he's sure the media has no interest in this and won't expose it.

I try not to look.  Really I do.

That's because the Hatch Act was amended to clarify that such people can run for office.

Yes, I know.  I'm looking for a 12 step program...

So at some point you clicked "follow"?

Nah, just a weird compulsion

I try not to look, but it's impossible.

Now our favorite ex-cop, wrecker driver, pizza slinger, cab driver, sheriff candidate says he's been offered $100K to take a chief of police job out of state.

Rice was on Fox23 last night saying his Checker Cab drivers will be armed, following a carjacking.  Couldnt find a link.

Buckle up!  Jim Peters Rice (who backed out of the Sheriff's race after he backed out of Shotgun Sam's) has apparently filed for Tulsa City Council District 3.  Too bad he and Paul Tay aren't competing in the same district...

Oh hell, that's my district.

I assumed he dropped out of the sheriff race due to background checks...is this not done when running for city council?

He simply converted his sheriff page over to his latest venture.
