ALERTER'S COMMENTS:

While the South certainly has its share of racist people, it does not corner the market on racism or Fox viewing. This type of stereotyping of Southerners as racist, uneducated, backwards knuckledraggers only perpetuates a negative attitude toward those from the South who are true democrats! Region bashing makes DU suck!

Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said:

The south may not be the only place where racism and idiocy are, but it certainly is the dominant mindset down there. I know what the poster meant and I suspect you do too.

It's an ugly truth.

Leave it.


Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: A little bit of region-bashing is present, but I don't think that it is over the top. This is the first post by this person so I'm willing to give it some leeway rather than discourage a new user from participating in the discussion.
