Tulsa's new Gathering Place Park to ban guns

[DavidMcmillan]

It's a beautiful park. Very family friendly, and great for celebrations of various kinds. Just go and enjoy it. Keep'em concealed and have a good time. Or strap'em on and stay home. We've got bigger issues to solve.

"OK2A
The group that started the furor, the Oklahoma Second Amendment Association, held a rally outside the Gathering Place earlier this month to advocate for more open gun rights inside the park.

Perhaps it was partly due to the dreary weather (and relative lack of parking spaces at the park) but the rally went off with more of a whimper than a bang.

Still, a few dozen firearm advocates stood in the rain and listened to OK2A president Don Spencer, and state Sen. Nathan Dahm, R-Broken Arrow, for a short time. Then a few supporters, including Tim Harpe — the man who was recorded being kicked out of the park for open carrying a firearm during the grand opening — walked unbothered through the Gathering Place."



What's sad is that only a couple dozen showed up. If that had been anti gun, thousands would have shown up, mostly paid to do so, but numbers matter.
I'm a member of OK2A but I sure didn't get an email or text to show up.
I'm contacting them to see why. BTW, where is the Oklahoma Rifle Association on this subject? They claim to be advocates of the 2A?

I did get an email about the rally and like you said weather sucked. Received rally email Oct 12 with no date for rally. Just a link to map.

Don Spencer and OK2A might as well rent a room in Tulsa for these two battles. It seems TPD is bowing its neck up at what the city prosecutor told them. The city spokesweasel…errrr...mayor has also chimed in on the controversy to ensure the free flow of GKFF money in desirable directions.

It seems this would be easy to resolve. If it is truly private, show us where it is on the tax rolls and a receipt for taxes paid. If it is not on the tax rolls and it is being used as a park, state law supersedes what any municipality is being pushed into by monied interests. And, if it is truly private, stop assigning city employees to work there - TPD, parks department, etc.

Seems as if I heard in the news that Tulsa put in $65 million, sounds "public" to me
