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.
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.

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

It’s not an American state if they don’t omit the indigenous folk

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

Something that happened in 1921 is all you need to understand about Oklahoma.
