Florida, Texas and Louisiana. I've lived in Louisiana twice, and it's a mess.

Mississippi 
It's the only state that I can find a ton of flaws with.

All the states who voted for Mitt Romney tbh.  |
Bitch you are NOT coming after Arizona, best state in the union 
Cheap living, only atheist/bisexual in congress (Sinema), the glorious city that is Phoenix, The Grand Canyon, Flagstaff and Sedona as the best retirement areas in the world, and non-bible thumping conservatives in politics (ALMOST libertarians)

Anyway. Any state that is mostly in the south barring big cities like Atlanta, Houston, Miami and so on are not so great. New England, North Atlantic and North Pacific >>>>>>>>>

The gay law was never passed (and it's been denied multiple times in the past, don't know why everyone got worked up last month about it...) + our police aren't as ****** as most states, they don't actually go out and pull people over. They have the right to, but they hardly actually do. Sure it's a stupid law but it doesn't automatically make AZ bad.
Educate yourself 
We have nearly no WASPs here anyways.... 25% of our people are atheist and only 15% are protestant. Then we're nearly colorblind, I've never seen any racism here outside of central Phoenix.

Still no, the fact that the law is in effect is bad enough. It's profiling point blank. Arizona has one of the worst education standards in the country. The pollution is bad. The taxes are ridiculously high including insurance. Arizona has a whole bunch of faults.
It's one of those states where it's nice to visit, but not great to live. Especially when you have much better states. A simply rule of thumb is, if you can't raise a family there you shouldn't live there. And that's Arizona.

AZ is cheaper than the US average
Our public education is a mess and I'll agree to that... But we have AMAZING Charter and Private schools. Xavier, Brophy, PCDS, Orum, Arizona School for the Arts, etc. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>
PCDS has a 100% rate of students going off to college, for example. And most of the kids go to Ivy League schools. Brophy has some of the top debaters in the COUNTRY.
It's only our public system which is awful. Only redeeming thing about it I can think of is Arcadia's amazing film program which is among the top in the country (Spielberg even went to Arcadia for high school)
The law is in place, but are there not worse laws in most other states? The profiling law doesn't mean police are required to search people, it means they have the option to. Unless you're a douchebag police officer, you don't do that. I hope the law is repealed but it's not an AWFUL thing

Obviously not California.
Has anyone lived in Louisiana? How is it? My dad lives over there because of work and he tells me there is practically nothing to do over there.
