67. Texas is freakin' wierd.
It is one of our states with a 'duty to retreat' when faced with violent assault BUT you can shoot people stealing your property, apparently, even if they are fleeing, and no threat to you.

Mostly, the south just seems completely broken to me. Last time I traveled there on business, I lost count of the number of Civil War statues, and dioramas in building lobbies, etc. It's like they massively resent the whole civil war thing, or worse, somehow think they actually won it.

I'm going to make a note to avoid it in the future. The whole place just gives me a bad vibe. Tennesee was just as bad.
