The state government in my state are the biggest bunch of assholes in the world. Hardly anything gets done in our legislature unless it involves some ALEC driven legislature or taking power away from Oklahoma voters. When the fracking related earthquakes started happening, they passed a law preventing cities an towns from passing civic ordinances banning fracking. When cities moved to increase minimum wages they passed a law saying only the state could do that. When Oklahomans passed an initiative petition reforming sentencing and making many non-violent offenses misdemeanors, they changed the law after it passed to restore felony convictions if the crime occurred withon 1000 feet of a chirch or school. You can’t swing a cat in this state withouthitting either.
Now we have a medical marijuana initiative petition that we will vote on in June and they are passing laws now to make it impossible to do more inotiative petitions and changing the state law to circumvent what is in the petition we’re voting on. Scott Pruitt, by the way, delayed the vote on this bill by a year by jacking with the language on the ballot so the initiators had to sue in the state supreme court (they won).
it would have never passed with the language he wrote and he knew it.
In November these Tea Party mother fuckers are gone. The public outcry is getting louder and louder. I’ve always thought evil was overblown when people talked about it. These assholes are evil personified.
Irony of ironies? Now the legislature says there are too many regulations in Oklahoma.
The people is where the power should reside.
