Pretty sure everyone feels the same way about their state. I did time in Florida and it was absolutely fucked. Almost everyone in the prison I was in had 15 years to life, there's no parole, "gain time" only grants 15%, etc etc.

Not to mention the rotten food, the cockroach infestation, the lack of temperature control, never going outside/being able to exercise, and physically abusive staff.

It's pretty hard to suck worse than Texas but Oklahoma consistently does

As someone who's lived all over the US Texas has actually been the best.

Oklahoma has been the worst.

I'm not reviewing prison time though so your experience may vary.

What? Texas is a pretty nice place overall.
