“Everyone already camped out/lined up gets to stay. But no one else is allowed in until Saturday morning. Idk how many blocks affected. Looks like to me it's about a 1/2 mile radius around the BOK Center. Interesting to note, a *special* section has been roped off for BLM crowd.“

But that’s just a tweet so who knows.

Seriously read hizzoner’s name as PT Barnum.


“The curfew is the result of an executive order from Mayor G.T. Bynum, which cites both local and nationwide unrest in recent weeks as the rationale for the curfew.”

His grandfather LaFortune and uncle LaFortune were mayors of Tulsa. A Bynum ancestor was a mayor of Tulsa before OK became a state in 1907

He worked as an intern for Inhofe, I think. I believe Inhofe has been a mayor of Tulsa OK
