Some answers to FAQ from a life long Oklahoman

-why is everyone freaking out over the forecasted snow storm?

Our state has very little of the infrastructure needed to deal with a large amount of snow or extended cold weather.

-why are the grocery stores empty?

Everyone is scared they will be stuck at home with no power, no water, and no hope that the government will be willing to help.

-why all the milk and bread?

I honestly do not know. Me and mine have 2 weeks of shelf stable things to munch on but we have the privilege to be prepared, most of the state are unable to afford their basic needs day to day and cannot adequately prepare for things like this.

- why does your government suck?

"Rugged individualim for some, gut wrenching poverty for most." Is the motto of the GOP whom have a super majority in our legislature. They are currently actively campaigning to defund libraries, public schools, and county services because "it's not nice to make rich people pay taxes" or something.

- you seem angry.

That's not a question.
