You can have your Dark Ages mentality, I'l live with the smart people (unlike where I live now)

But we all have to strive for something (or someplace) better, so thats what I'll do.
Most of those Republican liars jumped ship and went to the Democratic party. Good riddance to bad rubbish, ya'll can have them

Boston might be a bit much for you, not sure.

Lots of Texans end up in COLO and do very well here. We have tolerance for all sorts, and we have all sorts.
I lived in Denver for 6 yrs. Native Coloradans do not have tolerance for all sorts, especially people who transplanted from California or Texas. Denver is more conservative, but has a more tolerant mix. Similar to Austin, Texas that way. Boulder is ultra liberal and called the Peoples Republik of Boulder and is not tolerant of conservatism. Fort Collins is also a tolerant mix as far as liberal/conservative

I would call more than 1/2 of those states conservative, despite the last election. Although as the demographics change they are becoming more "liberal" and that's why the USA is in marked decline and basic bankruptcy over gvt. spending (wars included, which were neocon not conservative).
Are you smoking liberal crack or conservative meth?

Crystal Meth production occurs in rural america because there aren't as many neighbors nearby to rat them out. School shootings happen for a variety of reasons, meth having little to do with it. I mostly hear about gang/drug violence happening in Inner City schools. Bullying is probably the number one reason for kids coming unglued.
