It was a really religious area as well so that really didn’t help. The local religious people have a strong belief in having as many children as possible as soon as possible. The running non-joke (because it’s common) about it is the first kid to turn 16 drives the 3rd van.

Eh, the populated areas of Oregon and Washington are chill. The rural areas are scary.

We’re a great coalition of states, even with the red areas we have to drag kicking and screaming into this century.
