Bigger in everyway! Bigger crime, bigger gun problem, bigger capture by oil companies, bigger environmental damage, bigger racism, bigger highways... The list goes on!

Bigger douchebags

Not to defend Texas, but Alaska has waaaaaay more crime. At least if we're talking about violent crimes. I wanted to move there once, but I decided against that based mostly on that factor. Approximately 8 in every 1000 people will commit a violent crime in Alaska. For reference, Texas is about 5.

But Texas has 40 times the population

[–] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago

I'm talking about per population. Of course if there's more people there's more crime.

Yep. One guy in my class had an exchange student from Texas. Absolute biggest asshole. A real advertisement for Texas: "Never go to a state where they breed idiots like that."

One of the worst people I ever had the displeasure of working with was from Texas.

Granted, I have also worked with others from Texas that were fine.
