This is happening in OKLAHOMA? I thought this was the Reddest of Red States? C’mon, Okies! Take care of business.
“C’mon, Okies! Take care of business.”
What most don’t realize is that Oklahoma was a democrat-controlled state since its inception over 100+ years ago. Republicans have only taken control in the last few years, and it was a hard-fought battle. So, you have a mostly conservative population (but with a populist bent), with a still democrat/progressive-trending state government. And the two major population centers, Oklahoma City and Tulsa have more liberal local governments than the rest of the state, especially Tulsa.
But, keep in mind that “progressive” here in Oklahoma is relative to the rest of the state. It is nothing like what passes as progressive in the NE, the two left-coasts, etc. Most of our “progressives” would be considered conservatives in most of the rest of the country.
I tend to view the “typical Okie” as mostly a conservative, with a pinch of the old-style populist democrat and a dash of the libertarian added in.
The COO of the business shot the (just-fired) Muslim after he beheaded the first older woman, and was stabbing a second female employee. Police said that he would have kept stabbing and killing and beheading, had the COO not shot him. In this case, I believe that the Okie did take care of business... and so, of course, the MSM will NEVER make mention of it.
