For example, during a speech to commemorate MLK Day in northeast Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt claimed, without even a wink or sly nod, that Martin Luther King Jr. – a hero who literally gave his life in the fight for civil rights, justice and racial equality for all – would be "disgusted" with the US Supreme Court's McGirt ruling.
