[QUOTE="Hobbes, post: 1566005, member: 3371"] For all the people here who think that legislators are NOT above the law: Under the Oklahoma Constitution, members of both houses enjoy the privilege of being free from arrest in all cases, except for treason, felony, and breach of the peace. This immunity applies to members "during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same." The term "arrest" has been interpreted broadly, and includes any detention or delay in the course of law enforcement, including court summons and subpoenas. So, I guess I will vote yes on this poll. :tounge2: [/QUOTE]
