Also worth mentioning that Ross Lake Hotel was recently sold and I heard the new owner was going to be converting it back into a single house. I wouldn’t be surprised if the new owner decided that was going to be harder than he thought. The timing of it all is very suspect
I thought it was bad where I live, but when I was in OKC it was so much worse. I’ve never been anywhere so hostile to pedestrians. Sidewalks were jagged and broken and just ended randomly wherever they thought they could squeeze more parking in. Despite being a small city there were highways EVERYWHERE. You could never escape the roar of traffic. My buddy who lives there is in a gated community and even if there was anything around (there wasn’t) you couldn’t walk anywhere anyway because the gate is pressure sensitive to the weight of a car so you can’t actually leave unless you’re driving. I can only hope the next generation of planners can mitigate some of the last generation’s damage in our lifetime
There was definitely a scene where they’re sitting at the dinner table and the father is railing against affirmative action because his department hired a black firefighter.
Sounds familiar. When the Americans wanted to go into Iraq there was “unconfirmed” stories of Iraqis murdering babies in hospitals. The demonization of people is getting out of control quickly here. Posting stories like this without solid evidence is not only unhelpful, it’s very irresponsible
A teen drama from the 90s
I shared a name with a character on 90210. It was pretty annoying for a decade but it’s been awhile since anyone has made that comment
I think you missed my point. This is not about punishing white people, it’s about getting the victims caught up.
It’s not intended to be punitive. The idea is that slavery generated a massive amount of wealth for slave owning economies that left us richer and the descendants of slaves poorer. Think of it as being the child of a crime boss. You haven’t committed any crimes but the hosue you live in and the school that gave you the education to get ahead were paid for with dirty money. The idea is fair, but just not likely to ever happen. I think the point is more so to make people recognize the problem so that more is done to catch up the people on the wrong end of the generational wealth spectrum
This is the third post I’ve seen about Stanley cups and only now did I realize it had nothing to do with hockey. I was very confused how someone had spent $3000 on Stanley cups
