But the weather kicks ass 8 months of year? lol This state is so crazy-any non felon can legally carry a firearm-yet fireworks are illegal. DUI laws here are insane-1st offenders are looking at a minimum $15K in fines/attorney fees, a month DL suspension, and minimum 2 weeks in jail-aka tent city. Tent city is Arpaio's answer to jail overcrowding-tents set up in the 120+ degree desert surrounded by fence w/ razorwire. Inmates wear pink underwear and b&w striped prison suits. Green bologna is your dietary staple. No weights, no porn, no coffee either. Last summer someone brought a thermometer in there and it read 134 degrees on a top bunk bed. The real joke is weed-get busted with paraphanelia with residue, or a roach, you're looking at 1 yr's drug testing and $1000 fine on 1st offense. The cops that bust you for anything drug related act like they've just arrested a child molester. Yet if you drive 4-5 miles northwest to California you get a mail in ticket/fine for possession of less than a lb. of weed. Growing up in IL, the cops wouldn't even arrest you for under an oz-they'd just dump it out and let you go with a warning usually. Another messed up thing about AZ is the insane amount of photo radar/red light cameras-in a couple weeks we'll be the 1st place in the country to have photo radar on our freeways. If you ride a motorcycle and do a wheelie-the charge is stiffer than hit and run. Don't ask me how I know this.
