Ella - When I first heard this report last week, I thought KRMG had suddenly become overtaken by liberal idiots who supported this ignorant woman's perspective. She, too barely spoke english!

Anyway, I decided to listen further-and thankfully-heard the other side very well represented and handled.

Way to go John Filbeck for giving us the WHOLE story. While I could give a crud what the liberal perspective is, it sure is nice to hear my perspective in news reporting.

First off, how many illegals were insured and properly licensed before HB1804 and this new bill? If they cared that much about obeying the law, they wouldn't be here anyway.

Secondly, giving them a driver's license isn't about safety for the roads - it is purely about legitimizing their presence here and obscuring the fact they don't have proper documentation. Not driving safety. Not insurance. Not respect for the community. It's legalization without the hassles of following the law.

If this were a safety issue, the insurance companies (who want more money from premiums) and the department of transportation would be clamoring for it. But they're not, because it won't affect safety (or insurance policies) a whit.

If we allow illegals to obtain drivers license in their own language we are aiding and abetting illegal behavior. Why is this issue repeating itself. The national government will not address this issue full on, so it is left to the individual states to solve. Kudos and respect to Oklahoma elected officials to uphold and move forward on what an overwhelming majority of voters believe is the correct answer. English only, voter I.D's, and uphold our state and national laws.
