Towering 1907 feet into the sky, Oklahoma City’s proposed “tallest building in the U.S.” has triggered a class-action lawsuit by residents of surrounding states because they will be able to see the building.
“Our states are just too dern flat,” said Amarillo Tx. resident Roy Holstein. “If I stand on my porch I can spot a prairie dog stickin’ its head out 18 miles away. You think I won’t see lights from that Okie steeple? You betcha I will.”
Residents from other states expressed similar concerns about light pollution. “There’s nary a bump nor hill between OKC and Wichita,” complained Mary Smith. “All that light’s gonna keep me and my cats awake all night.”
“A Sooner sneezes and I feel it on my cheek two days later,” Carl Martinez claimed. A resident of Trinidad Colorado, Martinez says the problem is geology.
“This side of Colorado ain’t the Rockies. We got some hills but nothing to hide us from that OKC tower. You give a government man a pair of binoculars up top of that tower he could see where I keep my guns!”
Filing an amicus brief in support of the project is the state of New York that believes the structure will give terrorists something to target outside of New York.
