Lets say that we have more issues with gays than straights.
Let's say they don't.
You have to have some sort of statistics to back up your statements. Or it's just like, your opinion, man.
Lets say that we have more issues with gays than straights.

Based on what? In my era, Tailhook and several scandals with DI's having sex with female recruits were caused by straights, gays were at best in "don't ask, don't tell" mode.
Then gems like this:
According to a 2011 Newsweek report, women are more likely to be assaulted by a fellow soldier than killed in combat. In 2010, according to the Department of Defense’s Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office there were 3,158 military sexual assaults reported, however the Pentagon’s statistics say that that represents just 13.5 percent of the estimated 19,000 assaults that actually occurred that year.[SUP][11][/SUP] During that period, only 575 of the cases were processed. Of the cases processed, only 96 went to court-martial.[SUP][1][/SUP] Another investigation found that only one in five females and one in 15 males in the United States Air Force would report having been sexually assaulted by service members.[SUP][2]

I know this is radical for a lot of you, but gay people are still people. They have the same foibles as straights, the same capacity for good or evil as straights, etc.

.. you've decided that anyone who believes homosexuality is immoral is a bigot, I would simply suggest that you be more open minded.
Hah. You are willing to extends rights to the unborn, but not to those already exited the womb. Hypocritical logic, to be sure.
You think he should be open minded about people who are not the least open minded?
The most intolerant, close minded bigots on Earth are the left.
Simplistic first year College Freshman logic to be sure.
One group's close mindedness makes another groups close mindedness better how? I have to regularly remind Democrats that Bush = bad does not mean Obama = good. In that spirit, let me remind you that liberal = bad does not mean anybodyelse = good.
The old irony meter is really getting a workout.
Don't blame Gov Fallin, blame the Libs and the gays for pushing such a sick lifestyle on those of us who have severed and can't speak out against this kind of filth.
So it is better to punish all those spouses that want to apply for benefits to stop a few that you do not like? Makes perfect sense.Don't blame Gov Fallin, blame the Libs and the gays for pushing such a sick lifestyle on those of us who have served and can't speak out against this kind of filth.

Interesting how sometimes some of us don't want the feds telling the states what they have to do and sometimes some of us do.
Homosexual marriage is not a protected right by the Constitution and is left to the states and the people to decide how they wish to govern themselves. Oklahoma has made a decision. If you feel a state-recognized homosexual marriage is a necessity in your life, there are plenty of other states that will oblige you. To look to the federal .gov to impose some current populist cause dejour on a state with regards to an issue not protected by the US Constitution is a form of tyranny many seem to support.
[h=2]AMENDMENT IX[/h]The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
The 9th and 14th Amendments say you're on the wrong side of the argument. The feds should withdraw federal money for their treatment of the soldiers and their spouses in the NG. There's nothing in the Constitution that guarantees the states funding for their militias. The courts and military have ruled that spousal benefits are to be given to all soldiers, gay or straight. This woman just wants to cut off her nose to spite her face. Way to show respect to the serving members and their families.[h=2]AMENDMENT XIV[/h][h=2]SECTION 1.[/h]All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
