What you say is all too true. Low paying jobs started coming into Oklahoma worse than ever after Right to Work was passed in 2001. This was a backward thing to do that came out of the 1940's. No other state has been interested in Right to Work. It was a movement that petered out during the 1960's.
And it's a fact that there is so little serious concern about environmental quality in Oklahoma that not even the Democrats give a damn that Oklahoma Republicans inserted in two places into their state platform that animal waste should NOT be labeled as hazardous. I would think in more civilized states people would really be in an uproar over such an outlandish statement.
Animals have been ****ting since the beginning of time without the need to label their **** 'hazardous'.
Gays are the last group in America that its fine to discriminate against them it happens all the time they are considered second class citizens dont have same right like marriage as rest of us.
Homos have the exact same rights that all US citizens gave.

Some relegious extremist see it as a "badge of honor" to hurt them . "Their" God thinks thats fine.
America should have on the books bias hate crime laws .
Okay, is "homo" not an abbreviation for "homosexual"? But, that's derogatory right?
How many times do people call heterosexual people "hetero" or "hetero's"? But that's perfectly okay, right?

And as for the marriage issue, once again, the primary entry from Merriam-Webster.com:
Main Entry: mar·riage
Pronunciation: \ˈmer-ij, ˈma-rij\
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English mariage, from Anglo-French, from marier to marry
Date: 14th century
1 a (1): the state of being united to a person of the opposite sex as husband or wife in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized by law...
Marriage takes place between a man and a woman; hence, there is no "right" of same-sex people to "marry". Not because they're homosexual, but because of the above-referenced definition.
so you will limit people rights based on a dictionary? another book that is made up. wasnt bling bling added to the dictionary not too long ago? thats pretty funny.
why do you want to limit your fellow citizens rights?
ok so dont call it marriage, let the church keep that. but in this civil society, two loving consenting adults in a romantic relationship who are willing to commit to eachother for the rest of their lives should be allowed to.
i dont think a book, be it a bilbe or a dictionary should impede that or infect peoples ideas on equality.
but i thought this was about proteting those targeted by lowlifes?

You need to get a clue. There is a certain word that is an "abbreviation" of negro. "Homo" has been used as a slur often enough to qualify it as such.
I don't have a problem with civil unions; they're just not marriages.
