Of the states I've been to, Alabama, and I was born and raised here. I hate it. People are completely willfully ignorant, I have to deal with casual racism and sexism from almost everyone, and I'm, sometimes, treated like a pariah because I don't share those opinions.
The worst was when I was working as a cashier for a sporting goods/outdoors store. For the 3 months I worked there, at least once a day, usually more, I had to listen to full blown racist rants about our President. Regardless of your feelings on Obama, I think we can all agree that screaming at a cashier for 10 minutes about how awful he is, with liberal use of a certain word beginning with n, is a little much.
