No more sex in Oklahoma. It's a dry nethers state.
The bill, set to be introduced next month by state Sen. Dusty Deevers (R-Elgin), would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.
Let's get back to the golden era of porn with some good story telling, step bro.
Let me guess: his wife caught him watching gay porn and since he is a good Christian he wants to save others from falling into the same trap? And now his wife is really proud of him?
Freedom and small government, right?
Sen. Dusty Deevers just can't stop thinking about breasts, and yummy penises, and... won't someone help him? Won't the legislature pass a law keeping his hands in the open and off his crotch? Anyone, pass a law!
These people are fucking insane, what the hell. Right wingers will tell you stories about sharia law and how they want to come to other countries and enforce said sharia law, and how that is bad (rightly so).
Yet here they are, advocating for y'all queda's version of sharia law. Fuck these christofascist stochastic terrorists
I'd paint dicks all over the town, so they have to walk around blindfolded or arrest themselves.
We should all consider the meta of the situation as well, with an upcoming Republican candidate election, and the need to drive people out to the voting booth.
""We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed..."
Time for the citizens of OK to speak up.

I'm not from the USA, I thought a felony is a crime at the national level, not the state level? How can a state specify that?
Felony is a more serious crime, misdemeanor is a less serious crime.
But there are federal crimes and state crimes, and we have courts for each.
