Apparently Oklahoma Loves Being Sued

They don't love getting sued but will do anything to take a "moral stand". They have similar characteristics that ISIS followers do

This is what happens when there no personal accountability. All politicians should have some sort of outside the system accountability. And I mean besides the stupid "he supports jebus lets vote him" voters.

I lived in Oklahoma City for a bit over a year, just out of college. It's where I got my first "real" job. That place scared the shit out of me. I took a shittier job with a shittier company just so I could have them pay for me to move to another city, after I literally got into a fistfight in traffic (having first jumped off my motorcycle as the guy got out of his car and charged at me) because I laughed out loud at a bumper sticker that said, "I believe in the Big Bang: God spoke and BANG!, it happened."

Seriously, that place is appallingly bad, in terms of rabid, terrifying levels of fundamentalism. And I'm from the Deep South! Downtown OKC literally lights up its skyscrapers at night with the office lights in the shape of crosses, which can be seen for miles as you approach that flat city on the interstates that cross there (I-40, I-44, and I-35).



My ex-GF and I used to have a game we played, while we lived there, when we went out to lunch. If we saw more than two Jesus fish or anti-science bumper stickers on the back of the cars in front of us at a stoplight, on the way to go eat, then she bought lunch. She agreed to the bet because she thought I was just making it up. Instead, she wound up buying lunch almost every time, and finally called off the bet.

And, of course, with their insane levels of religious fundamentalism comes extreme poverty, high teen pregnancy and STD rates, a corrupt criminal justice system, and overflowing prisons that are literally worse than those found in many third-world nations.

Not my pic. Was from a news report. Steal away!
