No, bash away lol. When a states governor commandeers money from the populous and doesn't let the legislature know and spends chunks of it on advertising to manipulate public opinion and get them to vote one way or another they should be hated on.

Also that "nice" weather is usually a giant steam room at 5:20pm every summer day because there was a giant storm that flew through and rained from 5:10-5:15pm while the sun somehow never even went behind the clouds so it's hotter then hell and you're wet and sticky. It's likely half the reason you can still legally ride motorcycles there without a helmet because it's absolutely miserable to have moist cushions forcing your sweat and dirt back into your pores. It's like putting slimy bologna on your cheeks holding it there and trying to call it a joy ride. So you skip the helmet, get caught in a giant downpour flying down the highway with rain stabbing you in the face like needles for fun.

At least they've got their swamp puppies to keep them company because their dog already got eaten by the swamp puppy when you tried to take them fishing.
