Ah, just some crazy citizens. I'd say there's nothing much to see here.
Oklahoma isn't a southern state (well, geographically it is, but not in the sense that most people mean, which is "confederate state", as OK wasn't even a state during the war), so I've yet to hear a single person here make secession sound like a good idea, and generally whenever the confederacy is mentioned, it's mentioned like the north mention it, always "they seceded, over there, traitors".

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
