Texas is a wild-ass state, worse, in many ways, than Florida, in terms
of strange and violent criminal behavior. If you ever tour the Lower 48,
it's worth putting on your "avoid" list, along with Mississippi,
Alabama, and South Carolina. Louisiana is worth visiting, though. Note
that I am not saying our other states are without craziness and
violence, but from the headlines I see on regular news shows, it's hard
to top Texas.

Been to Charleston and Kiawa Island twice and had a great time. Drove
down to Savannah and that was fine too. New Orleans was pretty cool.
I might consider a trip to Austin but avoid the rest of that giant
wasteland.
