Oklahomophobic

OKLAHOMA CITY, March 14 -- Oklahoma state Rep. Sally Kern will not receive legislative punishment for anti-gay comments she made earlier this year.
Thousands of e-mails and phone calls began flooding the offices of Kern and other legislators after Kern told a group of fellow Republicans that gays are "...the biggest threat our nation has, even more so than terrorism or Islam...", the Oklahoman reported Friday.
The reaction followed the posting of Kern's comments on the YouTube Internet site.

House Speaker Chris Benge, a Republican, said he does not plan to punish Kern for the remarks.
