A state in the union that wants to show everybody up when it comes to being backwards.
Arizona was the last state in the union to ratify a Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday. The politicians and many of it's people (but not all) said "no!" to an MLK holiday long after every other state had already decided to honor Dr. King. Black athletes and leaders boycotted and the state eventually begrudgingly gave in.
Now, Arizona is once again trying to outdo all the other states and trying to reclaim its crown as the most intolerant, racist, and ass-backwards state by having recently passed SB1070--an unconstitutional, anti-immigrant, anti civil rights, xenophobic law that allows the police to racial profile ANYONE they see fit and it also allows law enforcement to arrest anyone that cannot produce documents that prove their residency/citizenship on the spot. This law has been called the most racist law since the Jim Crow laws of in the deep South. Way to go, Arizona!! You are the U.S. CHAMPION when it comes to staying way behind the rest of the country!!

Man: This SB1070 law is harsh and, ultimately, the police can stop and harass ANYONE they feel like and all they have to say is that they suspected someone of being in the U.S. illegally.
Woman: Sounds like Gestapo tactics to me and we are losing more of our freedoms. Time to boycott Arizona!
Man: That's what I'm saying. I'm boycotting anything from AZ, starting with the Diamondbacks.

The sweetest state in the nation. Known for great pizza, Camelback road, and awesome single sex schools. Phoenix is the heart of the southwest. People from Arizona tend to be MAD HOT.

Word used to signify defiance. This is seen in the sudden popularity of products with the word 'Arizona' on them. Having nothing to do with immigration necessarily, just opposition to federal government interference. This is used synonymously with 'resistance' and 'states rights'. To be seen with Arizona means you stand with anyone who believes the federal government has become too powerful.
First man to another man wearing 'Arizona' T-shirt.
What do you think of president Obama and Congress?
2nd man - "I like Arizona" "Nuff said"
First man nods.

a state with sand up its vagina .. literally and metaphorically. A state that allows open racial discrimination, demands birth certificates from presidential nominees and allows one to carry an assault rifle without an id (but if you look Hispanic you better be carrying an ID to prove you are not an illegal immigrant)

Arizona is nothing but desert, A US State situated on the Southwest region of the United States and is known to be blazing hot especially during summertime. Arizona is also known to be very beautiful for its beautiful desert scenery including beautiful plains, mountains, cacti scenery, desert sunsets and for its drastic weathers. Arizona is home to Phoenix, a major city in Southern Arizona and 5th most populated in the US, along with its metro area which is one of the fastest growing and more populated in the US and is home to Tucson, one of the Top 100 US cities in terms of population. Arizona is generally a good place to live for those who enjoy the desert and what it offers. A lot of AZ residents are not fans of Arizona's heat, summertime heat especially and it's bipolar ass weather..
