The dumbest state?
 
Which state do you think is the dumbest and why?

I think one of the dumbest states is Florida. Just what i've seen and read about the people in FL. Maybe it's the sun or the water they drink down there.

I've read that some teen girls were drinking bleach in hope that they won't get preganant or something similar to that. It was a while ago. There some other stuff i've read about but can't think of any of them right now.

In relation to vehicles Virginia takes the cake. The only state that doesn't allow a radar detector. They can get you for tint window, height of the car, exhaust even with CARB certification, etc.

Also they try to implement other traffic laws that were found unconstitutional by the courts.

States aren't dumb, although a higher proportion of some state's residents seem to be.

Since when do the states/feds pass laws based on if they are constitutional?

heh...

and my vote is for California. :tup:

All laws are constitutional...until a judicial review deems the law unconstitutional.:icon17:

Lug's right on the money. The diversity of people--even within a given ethnic group--is just too varied, in order to establish a "dumb state". But, when push comes to shove...Then, I'd have to go with the Hollywood community: They're rich, they're famous, most of 'em are relatively attractive (although this is debatable, obviously!), yet, they abuse controlled substances and/or are bisexual and/or are blasphemous against their Creator and/or commit suicide and/or envy each other 'cause of fame, money, looks, etc. All in all, they're a bunch of misfits that grow (or, rather, LOOK) older faster than most of us. Just check out old social misfit Lindsey Lohan and other of her kind!

Florida. Every time somebody is caught f*cking an animal, or the severed head of their sister, setting somebody on fire or calling 911 because a fast food outlet has run out of their favourite burger, it's Florida. If it's not Florida, it's Texas.

Now it looks like we are going to have to fight a legal battle against a regime that wants to remove states' rights. If you have a spare $20, you can always contribute to the border legal defense fund the AZ governor setup. :D

Cali... no doubt...

-being a gun owner, it sucked to buy one and have a "special" AR made for your state. -getting smog
-berkley, home of the retired hippies, and also the place of inflatable scrotum sacs.
-although protesting happens everywhere, this one pissed me off. Anti jew/american protesting was going on a few years ago in San Fran. Love how we just let them stomp all over the american flag.
-no more toys for kids in their happy meals cause they are getting fat lol

Can I add the dumbest city, cause I know for sure where I live, it's up there
-worst drivers
-dumbest cops, seriously nothing against them but I lol when the local news reported that they had mistaken horse clover for weed
-fattest city
-city increases property tax EVERY year vs. other local citys thats evey 2-3.
-waste money on attractions that no local visits every time
-does not even properly fix our pothole infested roads...

Ha, this has nothing to do with intelligence, only amount of spending on electrical utilities to create reliability. :shakes head:

You have to be careful and check the criteria they use to determine what "smart" and
"dumb" is. I remember when Houston was the fattest city in America every year for something like a decade...until the actually did an average weight measurement. Houston didn't even make the top ten. Turns out the criteria used to determine the fattest city were things like number of jogging trials vs number of fast food restaurants, etc. Basically all the thing the authors thought were "bad". They used everything except actual weight/ body fat content to determine the outcome. Statisitcs don't lie but liers use........well, you know the rest. The larger the number of criteria, the more the "shaping" of the outcome is probably being manipulated.

The dumbest state IMO is my own NJ. For not knowing how to keep our education system in good balance and for the people who can not drive worth jack here.

The driving test should be in ONLY english!!! What language are the signs written in?!?!?! seriously, go to a GA DMV and see how many illegal hispanics are there cheating and their english speaking friends tell them the answers! its retarded and I have to give GA the vote for worse drivers!!! Can you count how many times in a day someone makes a left hand turn from the far right hand lane? or right hand turn at a left hand turn lane at an intersection? I see about 3-4 a day on average. People here cannot drive to save their life. I had to take a defensive driving course with about 50 people (3rd ticket for speeding in 5 yrs) and you know how many people where in there from failure to maintain lanes and improper turns. 30 of the 50 people were in there because they did not understand the concept of stay in your fvcking lane! dont take a left from the far right thats just idiotic!

As far as driving goes GA takes the cake! this is coming from someone who has driven in almost every state. Florida is the least of your worries compared to ga!

wishihadnav 06-18-2010 02:27 PM

^^good point..u win GA is the stupidest..haha!
