Where ever Langston goes….violence follows.
That is not true. Violence can happen anywhere or anytime. For all we know, the viticms and the suspect might not have anything to do with Langston.
Guthrie has had plenty of violence lately and Langston was not involved. Example the pathetic beating of an autistic young adult, really okie
Okie, you do realize there is more crime committed at OSU and OU then there is a Langston right?
Alcohol and immaturity
Have you not noticed?! Crime is EVERYWHERE!! From sea to shining sea. It is time to start looking out for each other instead of having it in for each other.
