    Pretty much, I find it’s funny that it’s considered a Bastion of freedoms and a refuge away from the liberal policies of the world. When it actually is the state with the most human rights violations and the state where legally you actually have less personal freedom than any other state. I wouldn’t go to Texas even if you paid me, I wouldn’t go to Texas even if you could promise me a steak cooked on a propane grill by Hankster Hillington himself.

      The thing is, if you think that way (“I would NEVER go to Texas”), then you’re not really better than Texas, because the only image you have of Texas is what you’ve read online or what people have told you.

      And this is coming from a progressive dude.

      Edit: I’ve been schooled.
