Some state signs don't seem to prepare tourists for the state they're about to enter. So here are some more realistic state signs.

    Arkansas is a beautiful state and has one of the greatest education systems to date. I went to a small town of about 20,000 and was offered advanced placement, as well as honors classes in high school. I actually moved to Illinois and impress those I meet here with my intellect. Arkansas is also a great place to raise children. You don't have to fear your children riding bicycles down the street. If your car breaks down, someone will stop and help you. It's guaranteed. Arkansas has some really good christian people in it, and there is definitely nothing wrong with that. Stop hating because we actually care about our fellow man. Sorry, I'm just sick of the stereotypes about such a beautiful place.

    As you enter Siloam Springs, Arkansas on U.S. Highway 412 from the East, there is a giant sign that says, "Welcome to Siloam Springs, where Jesus is Lord. This is God's Country." I can't imagine how many visitors have been horrified by this sign.
