OKC destroyed by tornado

[d.bball.guy]

Wow at first I thought it was an overreaction..until I read that it was as much as a mile-wide tornado, killing 50+ and possibly more.

This makes me sick to my stomach. My nephew was in Briarwood Elementary when the tornado hit. Fortunately, he walked away with only a few scratches and some debris in his hair.

My sister lost her home though.

Shit that sucks man. Hope she can rebuild her life quickly.

Stay safe.

It's not on the networks.

Gotta remember that news/media is located here in New York/Northeast. Something that happens in middle america is never as big a deal to them.

Kind of like the NBA under David Stern. Only the big market East & West coast teams get the preferential treatments.


Condolences to OKC residents. This is sad.

First off, f**k off to anyone that comes in here joking.

Two elementary schools were hit and leveled, during school hours, trapping kids under the debris. Now, they're reporting that all the kids at one school have been accounted for, but who knows how accurate that is right now. I'm guessing the schools had a storm shelter, so hopefully everyone was in it when the tornado hit. The warnings came 20-30 minutes before the tornado got there so they should've had plenty of time.

Turn on TWC or CNN....it's in south Oklahoma City, which is the Moore area. Looks like the entire town was leveled and basically blown off the map. This is probably really comparable to the huge tornado that hit the OKC area in 1999.

C'mon man, they were just kidding around. Don't twist their words.

This comes immediately after Presti said "We are not amnestying Perkins, we think he adds a lot of value to our team".

Even God himself hates Perkins and is trying to punish OKC.

But seriously, condolences to all the victims, natural disasters are getting more frequent nowadays.

OKC destroyed by kendrick perkins

don't really think this is the time to be an idiot.

Prayers for the people of Oklahoma. Hopefully all posters here from OKC area are fine and no one lost their loved ones.

And how idiotic you have to be to joke about this ? Many people are dead and even the ones who survived lost their home.

2 miles Wide an F5 and 91 confirmed dead with possibly more..Probably will go down as one of the worst hurricanes in the last 100 years.

Wow, Moore is only 13 miles from Chesapeake Energy Arena. I guess for some of you it would have meant more if the stadium was destroyed.

My blessings goes out for the people in Moore. Losing children is just not right.

I bet KD was out for training. No better situation for arm flailing practice than tornado.

Seattle sends their regards

You should be permanently banned.

[ClutchOver9000]

Prayers out to OKC, my sympathies/condolences go out to everyone affected...

let the jimmies rustle through you.

I had a child die in the womb last fall, I moved on. You should too. It's estimated 150,000 people die everyday, paying respects doesn't bring back a single soul.

curse your loving "god" not me.

I do not dwell.

It's easy to move on when your done busting a nut all over your hand.

[tomtucker]

Crazy.

Look how many more people killed in this event, yet Boston Marathon terrorism felt like bigger news, no?

Death Toll is 51 and rising. Guess the tornado should be labeled a terrorist, it'll get more attention.

.........tonados are not evil, and feel joy when they harm and kill.........
