Although the article is posted under “humor,” and the article’s just in GQ and not a more substantive publication, this still hurts a little bit.
Of course it’s Arizona. The Grand Canyon State has always been famous for its giant holes, but only recently have they started standing up for themselves. And, fuck-a-doodle-doo, what a stand they’re making: A shocking new law instructs beat cops to question anyone who seems illegal, implicitly threatening deportation if they can’t produce proof of citizenship on the spot. Embattled Senator John McCain—tacking desperately ever-rightward, past Archie Bunker on his way to Nazi bunker—conjures images of a postapocalyptic wasteland overrun by drug cartels and illegal immigrants wreaking Frogger-style carnage on the highways. Meanwhile, some of his constituents, legions of leathery, orange-tinted whitefolk, exult in their state-sanctioned right to concealed weapons and unconcealed racism, and call for full militarization of their border. And we, of marginally-better non-Arizona America, second that call: Let’s absofuckinglutely militarize the Arizona border. On all sides. No one gets in or out. And if we need their goddamned iced-tea that badly, shit, we’ll slant-drill from Utah.

This one was really good.
4. Texas
First in the nation in executions, prison-rape, petroleum consumption, coal consumption, and natural gas consumption. Near the top in suicides. Last place in child health. And on top of all that, they don’t even really want to be a state. Long live the Republic of Texas! Secede now! We won’t stop you.

your policy states no profanity, yet your author has “fuck-a-doodle doo”…Personally, if you think Arizona is so bad, and America is so bad, there is a great aspect to AZ being SO close to the Mexican border, Haul your ass over the border & don’t come back. Freedom to leave is also included in the list of what we DO allow! Do you want me to help you pack?
And the idiot shows his true level of stupidity, AZ iced tea is made not in AZ..but in…lol look it up!
Hey, Mindy…that section is a quote from GQ, not something I wrote. I’m relatively sure the author doesn’t live here. Your passion is appreciated, however.
Mindy … can you tell me where our policy states no profanity?
If you think Az. is so bad, move to Ca. You would be perfect for that state, it is the worst state
Clearly written by someone who has never been to Arizona and hasn’t seen any of the countless pictures of victims of the drug trafficking business.
Arizona still hasn’t quite beat out Texas and Florida for the most mouth-breathing idiots per square mile, but it isn’t for lack of trying.
lol @ u thinking this is just AZ…welcome to AMERICA buddy!…wake the fuck-a-doodle-doo-up!!!
LouisWu for the win!!
