Older Charles Oakley Responds To Violence With Lawsuits Instead Of Fists

Former Knicks/Bulls/Wizards/Raptors/Rockets enforcer and current Charlotte Bobcats assistant coach Charles Oakley is suing the Aria hotel-casino at MGM's CityCenter complex in Vegas because security delivered onto him a "gang-style beat down" when he tried to get into the VIP-pool area. This allegedly happened moments after he left the VIP-pool area.

The complaint contends the officers wrestled Oakley to the ground and punched and handcuffed him, and that he was taken to the hospital with injuries to his neck, back, head and wrist, ''all or some of which may be permanent and disabling.''

Wonder what Barkley'll have to say about it.
