Shittiest state in the union. Alaskans carry themselves with and undeserved sense of accomplishment and superiority. Before I begin I'll tell you I lived there for a year (six months in the villages and six months in Anchorage and the valley) because of my work and that I have seen all the state has to offer and I'll list what those are here today. Alaska has the highest rape and sexual assault rate in North America. The average victim age was 16, 46% of these were referred for prosecution, with only about half resulting in convictions. So around 25% of those who committed sexual assault or rape will ever see jail time. This is believed to represent only a fraction of abuse actually committed in trooper jurisdiction. Still, Alaska has had the nation's highest per capita occurrence since 1995. According to statewide figures for 2003 and 2004 alone, there were 89 rapes per 100,000 people, almost three times the national average of 32 per 100,000. Alaska is also home to drunks, meth heads, child abusers, incestuous villages (incest is actually encouraged in most northern villages because of the low population), conservative gun wielding nut jobs, hunters, and of course xenophobic morons. People here are openly racist and loathe anyone who does not believe what they believe or feel how they feel. I've lived all over the U.S. including the south and I can safely say Alaska is the shittiest state in the union and that you would find far more tolerance in rural Alabama then in any part of Alaska. So I guess if you enjoy months of boredom, hating people with different ideas or a different culture, expensive shitty grass, meth heads out the wazoo, mosquitoes the size of your thumb, drunk driving accidents, rape, over zealous Christians everywhere (I've seen them in public schools, on sidewalks, on public buses, in native villages, even outside of an opposing religions church! And they're all ready to tell you you're going to hell if you don't worship their god), and child molesters then this is the place for you! Fuck Alaska and Fuck the morons who live here.
