you're probably just racist without realizing it. it's ok, most other bourgeois white males are too.

there it goes.

also I doubt he's gonna come all the way to the coast, that's a several hours drive and he's probably not renting a car.

Just throwing out ideas.

lol yes I'm sure new england would be less accepting of english people. you retaliated against what you see as an unfair assessment of the south with the typical southern-biased myth of the north.

I've spent plenty of time in northern states, mainly along the east coast. My opinions are based on experience, not stereotypes. Either way I didn't 'retaliate'.

Nah dawg not worked up. Just don't want anyone to ruin their trip with exaggerated tales of racism and hatred. I like the smooth transition between your rude first post and your I.don't.give.a.shit second post. I have yet to master that rhetoric

Uff. prejudice itt.

I've never really thought about going to southern US, but you're getting me interested. It sounds pretty incredible.

there's nothing "incredible" about the south. it is the worst cultural region in the world.

that was a trick question, your state capital was flying the confederate flag along with the state flag

Ten years ago. That's pretty ancient. Good work on your research though.

Oh and yeah I love the slave market because of all the slaves that used to be sold there it makes me feel warm inside

I think that's pretty incredible!

Did they promote slavery until 9/11 forced them to quit? 10 years is a suspicious amount of time.

There was a lot of controversy over the flag through the 90's. Hardly anyone agreed to have it flying it but our state legislation viewed it as an important piece of history to display on the state house. I was probably 13 when the people finally voted it down in 2001. As I said before, the state has a long history with racism but an event like the removal of the confederate flag from the capitol building only helps my point.

Ten years can have a lot of sway on social views, especially young people in my generation who grew up through that period

steps to greatness:

• take down confederate flag
• hide confederate flag in closet so blacks cannot see it and get uppity about it
• RACISM ERADICATED

do you guys still have black water fountains too? i wish we had black water fountains i do not like drinking water after those savages. i don't want to catch the black. afraid of not being able to go back.

Be incredulous if you wish. I'm not posting to make the state seem amazing, but some of the assumptions I've read in this thread are completely lol inducing.
