"South Carolina is too small for a republic and too large for an insane asylum." This quote was made in 1860 by James Petigru. He was the Attorney General for the State of South Carolina. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_L._Petigru

If you poll the residents, that statement probably applies to at least 49 of the 50 states. It seems that every day you hear about something crazy that happens in one state or another. Some states avoid the headlines because others are so outlandish.
