This is only OPINION and not meant to offend anyone. I found the southern states to not be as progressive as the northern states. I've lived in Atlanta before for 2 years and did not like it at all. The laws were backwards in the state of Georgia and it seemed liked the law there was a money making business. I have several friends in law enforcement there and it seems that they do it only for profit.
Once there were cops hanging outside of a nightclub with a paddy wagon arresting people for various viloations. I found out later that if you had $800 they let you go that same night. What the hell is that about?? I am not saying that NY ( where I live) is better or perfect, but it seems that way compared to GA.

I lived in Atlanta for 4 years - 1968 - 1972. I had no impression that the laws were backward. But, "roadside court" was common when it came to traffic violations. If we were traveling out of town we would put most of our money in the trunk of the car and keep $10 or $20 for the cop.
I don't know what it is like today though.
As for paying $800 to be let go that night, I suspect that these were misdemeanor arrests that can one can plead guilty to and pay right away. If a cop is going to fleece someone it will likely be in smaller amounts so it is not detected.

bill Clinton tried to sell them a number of our militia bases suited until now he became into impeached so it very almost surpassed off. inspite of the undeniable fact that that is a factor wherein human beings would upward push up and act on their own. And if this government allowed that then they'd be packing their bags too. the area which you attempt to make a assessment with together as attempting to cover the reasoning in the back of your question would not be conscious. in case you do not choose US squaddies going via your dee dee bag then keep your freaking terrorist at abode interior the squalor they have created.

Best and worst are subjective terms.
For example, some states are good for workers and bad for employers. Some states have great social services but those are paid for by higher taxes. Some states underfund education which provides a work force unlikely to want to unionize. Some states are more liberal with medical care which means there are more abortions in those areas.
Good? Bad? it depends on whose ox is being gored.

lol i live in New York and Florida (yes both states) and i love them i think law enforcement does a great job. I wouldn't want to live in Texas simply because too many people get sentence with the death penalty. just my opinion don't want anyone to get offended, i been to Texas and i like it but only for vacation.

I'd say that Idaho, Utah and Arizona are. Living in them is like living in a religious run state !
