Old version of PostgreSQL? Effort went into cleaning up inter-object
dependencies in 7.3. I don't recall having that particular issue in
versions prior either.
That said, you can remove the triggers that are on table "state"
beginning with the characters "RI". psql -d state will tell you what
they are.
