I have written on this before and I have done battle with this evil in my own life. I have had people treat me like I am invisible because they think a single mother is not worth much. I have had lawyers take my money and not cross examine or defend me in family court, because they assumed I was just out for money with no regard for my children’s welfare. I have been screamed at by irrational judges.

I know how it is to be on the receiving end of prejudice. I realize it is an irrational thought process.

Knowing all of this I must admit I am prejudice against a certain group of people. It is not blacks although I have had my car window shattered and two purses taken from the front seat of my car by a young black man. I am not prejudices against Muslims. I don’t believe in Mohammad or extremist violence but I have met several Muslims which I have loved as friends.

But I do know that I am prejudiced against a certain group of people and this prejudice is not based on race or religion it is based on a state.I have a prejudice against people from Oklahoma. What?!! Yes, I don’t trust people from Oklahoma. It all started when I dated a guy that had married a woman from Oklahoma and he said he would never date someone from that state again. I thought that was kind of strange and then pretty soon after that I started working for a company that was based in Oklahoma.

That was the nastiest company I have ever worked for in my entire life and they just got sold for 70$ million dollars. The owner appears to be a kind and Christian lady and she may well be that, but her underlings are less than considerate in their demeanor. Makes me think that if the fruit is bad maybe the tree is rotten too.

I continually fight this feeling of bile coming up whenever I have to drive through Oklahoma but the last time I drove through this state I made my ex-boyfriend stop at a oil mansion. It was the Marland mansion and you would have thought that Mr. Marland was God, instead of the sexual pervert he actually had been. He had his sister’s daughter move in with him as a young girl and then all of a sudden his wife died and the nasty man then married his niece. She supposedly had mental problems and died a pauper. Yeah, well, sexual molestation commonly preempts mental issues, who would have thunk it?

So I have given up hope on people from Oklahoma. I thought that if I saw an oil mansion maybe I could wipe the slate clean and get rid of my prejudice but no such luck now I am even more prejudiced. Currently I have decided to fly to Nebraska and not drive through Oklahoma. I just don’t trust that state.
