Red towns are nuts. That whole "hey there sugar" small town feeling is not true at all.

In my state, one town in particular had to beg residents to stop calling the police on tourists. Another town had their mayor do the whole "This does not represent the town" after a bunch of dudes in pick up trucks harassed businesses owned by PoC.

Another town, two years back, the drama was a big pro-gun town but the moment a brown dude with a rifle walked around, the sheriff swarmed them.

Red towns aren't safe at all.
