I've heard many hateful or disparaging remarks about Oklahoma on DU, and have pretty much remained silent, just chalking them up to ignorance. No more! I was born in Oklahoma, but spent many years in other states and countries, and returned here with my parents years ago. I have many friends who have been here all their lives, but are very liberal. I'm about as far from conservative as anyone here on DU, and don't appreciate comments about how ignorant or racist, etc. Oklahomans are. Many of us are thoroughly disgusted with the situation in our country, as well as within our state. To make fun of, or say hateful things about Oklahomans makes no more sense than saying that all New Yorkers must be fascists, rapist, crooks, because look at Donald Dump! Generalizing about people's place of origin or residence is no different from racism. It's Ignorance, and hatefulness. Okay, sorry. Rant off.

There were many demonstrations all over Oklahoma today.
