Oklahoma is not perfect and I say that as someone whose family was here before statehood , but most of the gripes people tend to have aren't the big and important regulations as those are actually minimal for the most part. Its the tiny unimportant nonsense they tend to regulate that irks folks. One thing that cracks me up frequently is the number of folks who complain about things like not being able to buy a car on Sunday but 12 other states have that same regulation. It never really affected me personally.

Also just remember its illegal to go whaling in this state , I don't want to see anyone do time for it.

There is one thing about this state that really pisses me off. How taxes are charged on a vehicle purchase.

I traded a motorcycle for a new UTV. In every place I've ever bought a titled vehicle only the difference between the trade allowance and the price of the new vehicle was taxed. If the new vehicle was $10000 and your trade allowance was $8000, only the $2000 difference was taxed. Not here. So you're basically paying the tax on the trade vehicle a second time. Oklahoma pretty much rapes you on a vehicle purchase.
