Brian forwards this:

Interesting backlash...   a revival of State's Rights.   
 
Fred Fernandez forwarded a version of this to me...  Turns out that it is pretty much all true, as you can see from the "truth or fiction and "snopes" website links", or just by googling each of the referenced bills.

And just in case some idiot tries to confuse the subject; no, the reference to "save your confederate money" doesn't have anything to do with racism.  It's about a revival of State's Rights, and a backlash against an out of control Federal Government.

An update from Oklahoma :

Oklahoma law passed, 37 to 9, had a few liberals in the mix, an amendment to place the Ten Commandments on the front entrance to the state capitol.  The feds in D.C., along with the ACLU, said it would be a mistake.  Hey this is a conservative state, based on Christian values...!   HB 1330

                Guess what.......... Oklahoma did it anyway.

Oklahoma recently passed a law in the state to incarcerate all illegal immigrants, and ship them back to where they came from unless they want to get a green card and become an American citizen.  They all scattered.  HB 1804.  Hope we didn't send any of them to your state.  This was against the advice of the Federal Government, and the ACLU, they said  it would be a mistake.

               Guess what.......... Oklahoma did it anyway.

Recently we passed a law to include DNA samples from any and all illegals to the Oklahoma database, for criminal investigative purposes.     SB 1102

              
Several weeks ago, we passed a law, declaring  Oklahoma as a Sovereign state, not under the Federal Government directives.  Joining   Texas , Montana and Utah as the only states to do so.  More states are likely to follow:  Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia , the Carolina's, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, West Virginia, Mississippi, Florida.  Save your confederate money, it appears the South is about to rise up once again.  HJR 1003

The federal Government has made bold steps to take away our guns..  Oklahoma, a week ago, passed a law confirming people in this state have the right to bear arms and transport them in their vehicles.  I'm sure that was a set back for the criminals (and Obamaites).  Liberals didn't like it --  But ....

                Guess what............ Oklahoma did it anyway.

 
Just this month, the state has voted and passed a law that ALL driver's license exams will be printed in English, and only English, and no other language.  They have been called racist for doing this, but the fact is that ALL of the road signs are in English only.  If you want to drive in Oklahoma , you must read and write English.  Really simple. Offends a lot of politically correct people...

              Guess what....who cares... Oklahoma is doing it anyway.
