Why Are Americans so Anti-Utah?

Nothing can make Iowa look better.

I wouldn't be surprised, BYU sucks. Simple.

To touch up on what MrFun brought up....

They should make N. and S. Dakota into just "Dakota". and just have "Virginia"...none of this "West" stuff.

BYU sucks, and yet, they beat UH.......

Having lived in Texas a little over a year, Texans are friendlier. Tougher? not really.

Utah has a lot more industry than you think it does.

Being a Texan is not like being an american. You don't get the title just by being born there. Plenty of piss ants to be found here, but they aren't really Texan. However, it is not necesary to be native to become a Texan. I would consider George Herbert Bush an honorary Texan.

One question about Texas.

Why, at barbeques, are there NEVER simply hamburgers and hot dogs?

Brisket and sausage, always.

Another.

Why do texans like mustard ONLY on their hamburgers?

Because, they're silly. Everyone knows that mustard (as in the seeds, not that slimey ****) is best used in lemon fried rice

Same reason Texas should give all its holdings east of I-45 to Louisiana. But I guess it's like the Lebanon Security zone. It's crappy, but at least it makes for a buffer.

I live east of I-45

I'm surprised no one has said this:

Polygamy is illegal in Utah. It was a condition of it becoming a state. Very few people practice it today and it is, in fact, illegal and has been since 1885 (whenever they joined the union).

I think most of the anti-Utah sentiment comes from the Mormons being devout little sheep.

It's not enforced.

I thought someone just got convicted for that in Utah.

I have a problem with Utah because they nearly had a war with the United States in 1857 when President Buchanan sent an expeditionary force to suppress the Mormon contigent and Brigham Young was a hop, skip, and a jump away from declaring a holy war on the USA. How dare they try to defend themselves when put under the thumb of federal control!

How many Utahians do you know with more than one wife?

Technically, he wasn't practicing polygamy.

He married an underage girl, divorced her. Then did this several more times. All of these girls lived with him and acted as his wives.

Don't forget the mormons killed a lot of people. They made deals with Indians and killed women, children, and men of a emigrant party from Missouri.
