That's great, but what about the KFC you ate at yesterday? What does that franchise owner contribute to politically? I doubt you would know in such a case. It's a decent argument, and you're welcome to boycott Clay and Aubrey's NBA team, but this vote is about IMPROVEMENTS to a city owned facility, that charges rent to tenants. The benefits to OKC far outweigh what impact Aubrey McClendon might have on politics.
