Broken Arrow, OK – An estimate thousand people fill the sanctuary at the Broken Arrow Assembly of God Church. They are there to voice their opposition to a casino under construction one-mile south. The crowd heard from politicians and watched a highly produced video.

The crowd gave a standing ovation to Congressman John Sullivan when he pledged to get to the bottom of the issue. The Casino is being built by a branch of the Creek Nation.
