I wonder if that chart correlates with the population of hookers by state?   :evil:

Almost double the next highest state in deaths by fire. No smoking in bed, Haemmy!

Oddly, Hawaii....A VOLCANO...is far and away the lowest in fire deaths.

That's crazy, was there some sort of fire related massacre in the year those numbers are from?

No, people are just stupid. Also, there are a lot of shady construction companies around who will put up tinderboxes with shitty insulation, barely-to-code buildings, especially when talking about apartment complexes for low-income housing. I can't say for sure this is why we have such a massive amount of fire deaths, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Because people in Mississippi think duck and cover and stop, drop and roll are reasonable defenses? Or maybe they just enjoy lighting their farts on fire.

If Mississippi is like where I grew up (and it is), I suspect it is partly because of the condition of most homes.  The house I grew up in, for example, is probably 80-100 years old and constructed from pine.  Even I was mildly shocked when my mom told me that she figured out how the cat was getting out of the house: there was a hole rotted through the floor in their bedroom.

Wow- that is almost a perfect listing of the states in reverse order I would prefer to live in them, with a couple of outliers (Texas and Utah are WAY too high).

:P

Texas is a good state if you move to a place that suits your tastes.  We have diverse options and a ton of different sub-cultures because of how big the state is.  As long as you can handle the weather, at least.

Crap. Where was this damn site when I was compiling state level data a few months ago.

Anyways, if you simply must keep your teeth and move to Utah to do it, I will be happy to show you all the subversive aspects of life behind the Zion Curtain.

I just finished 'Under The Banner of Heaven', Ab- have you read it? Is it fairly accurate in your experience?
