    Damn. The only thing Louisiana has going for it is New Orleans. Between the prison population and forcing religion down the throats of public school kids there’s nothing charming about the state.

    I mean… To be a little bit fair, the middle east doesn’t police things nearly as much as a general rule. Lots of people break the law with zero consequences. I lived next door to Saudi for a time and it was a little better where I was but still a world of difference in adherence to and enforcement of general laws compared to most western countries.
