Oklahoma House committee advances Ten Commandments bill

[TexasTowelie]

OKLAHOMA CITY — Thou shalt not give up isn’t one of the Ten Commandments, but it is being rigorously observed by lawmakers intent on getting them into schools and other public buildings.

On Thursday, a committee of the Oklahoma House of Representatives recommended passage of a bill authorizing the installation of “statues, monuments, memorials, tablets or any other display” of “historically significant documents,” including the Ten Commandments, in publicly owned buildings such as schools, courthouses, city halls and, presumably, the state Capitol.

House Bill 2177, by Rep. John Bennett, R-Sallisaw, also directs the state attorney general’s office to prepare a legal defense of the measure should it become law.

6. Oklahoma Gives Me The Creeps

I moved to Oklahoma when I retired in 2014 to be near my closest relatives. I grew up in Dallas, but have also lived in NY, Maryland, Virginia, Indiana, California, Hawaii and Brisbane, Australia. This is by far the scariest place I have ever lived. I would move, but I am 72 and in poor health so I need the support of my family. I am truly horrified by this place.
