A place that used to be paradise decades ago when it was run by sensible,
libertarian-minded conservatives
like Barry Goldwater who believed in a night-watchman state that mostly minded its own damn business. Now, however, it's run by a bunch of fascists who are owned by the
GEO group, installed by all the boomer farts who have moved here from the
Rust Belt to retire and who think that, on general principles, anything that's any fun should be banned and anyone under the age of 50 should be under some form of correctional supervision. A 22-year-old
dude who sleeps with a 17-year-old chick there will be required by law to register for life as a sex offender, even if the judge knocks the charge down to a misdemeanor, and even if the two wind up getting married. Seriously!
But wait, there's more! Things are about to get even worse in Arizona: Having completely destroyed their own state,
CALI-fornicators are fleeing to and overrunning the place in massive numbers and will surely soon be voting to impose the same lunacy that degraded
California to the point where they could no longer stand to live there, just as they did in Colorado and
Oregon.
Also, the places there where everyone lives (Phoenix and Tucson) are very, very fuckin' hot in the
summer. Especially Phoenix. (Tucson is usually a few degrees cooler due to its higher elevation but it's still hotter than the interior of a
blue supergiant).
I live in Arizona and grew up here. Right
now, I am plotting my getaway to
Montana. I
hope they don't hate Arizonans as much as they hate Californians.
