    Oklahoma is easy to understand. Take white people, remove education, add some black people, take away a decent wage and hope. Boom, instant Oklahoma

      Yeah, I drove through there once. Illegally pulled over and searched (oregon plates). Wasn’t even remotely surprised it happened. Fuck Oklahoma, apologies to those who have to live there.

    I lived in Texas for over three decades. It’s my god given right not to understand Oklahoma.

    It’s an interesting story, I definitely appreciate learning about this… and one which is very specific to Oklahoma, and doesn’t reveal all that much (nor would I say it’s necessary to hear to understand the crux) of Americanism.
