the problem was oklahoma state law says that if you want to sell a casket to consumers and oklahoma oklahoma based company, you must be licensed as a funeral director and kim was not. she could have gone back to earn this license, but it would require her to go to school for two years. she would have to complete an internship during which time she would involve and have a brick-and-mortar business in which she would have a selection room, preparation room, viewing room and she would have to have inventory on hand. none of which they were then. this is not a rational enough. they sell a box because that's a casket is, an empty box. the law created a circumstance where an oklahoma based company had to be a licensed funeral director and oklahoma, but companies outside of the state who sold consumers and oklahoma did not have to have a funeral directors late. so kids could have taken her business, which was essentially computer servers. she could've taken her servers and moved across the state line. and they are the consumers and oklahoma all day long. but she didn't want to do that. she wanted

but it's possible nobody in arkansas read that report out of oklahoma about what happened in oklahomaeir execution problem. we don't know, but right now the state of arkansas has scheduled not just one night of back-to-back executions, not two, not three, arkansas has scheduled four sets of back-to-back double header executions over a period of ten days starting monday. it's a mass execution. no state has executed this many people this fast since the country reinstated the death penalty in the 1970s. one of the biggest questions has been whether the judicial system can even absorb this many hearings. the last minute appeals when you have all of these people you are going to kill in this close proximity. over the last two weeks one of the courts blocked one of the the executions saying his clemency case deserves another chance. the rush in this case appears to be driven by the fact that one of the drugs that arkansas wants to use to kill all these guys is a drug that's set to expire at the end of this month. rushing to get an unheard amount of executions off because drugs are about to
