    Why hasn’t Oklahoma been given back yet?

    It was ruled that the old treaties, testifying it as native land, were rightful, wasn’t it?

      Stitt has been doing his damnedest to fuck with McGirt. There’s regular social media meltdowns over indigenous hunting and fishing rights.

      The state is corrupt to its core - the FBI was literally created because of a massive and high level conspiracy to bomb Osage natives and take their land rights, which the Oklahoma government could not be trusted to investigate. There are lots of small towns where the law is whatever the guy who owns the car dealership says.
