I know you’ll all call me a southern, bigot, racist.
But I just want everyone to know that the Civil War ended in the 1860s. and then “reconstruction” raped the South even further.
Not everyone South of the Mason-Dixon Line is bare foot, with three teeth and a shotgun… except my Grandfather.. and he’s a Democrat.
I’m not in favor of Slavery, I’m not racist. I’m just sick of being judged by the area of the country that I was born in. How is that any different than being judged by the color of your skin?
I’m from the South and Proud of it.
Let the bashing begin….

We all know that there is something wrong with people from the south. Are they groomed to be inbred fools? Is it something in the water? Why are they borderline retarded? Any answers…I have one more year left in South Carolina, after that I am getting the hell out of any state that even associates with a any piece of land south of the “Mason-Dixon” line.

That’s a big NO! The northern Mexico is loaded with drug cartels with Tijuana as the worst ever. Most of the north is a dangerous place to go to. Poverty level is high there too and nothing like the USA. The baja coast, Cabo, Mazatlan are like the Caribbean as far as the ocean goes, but still very different from the Caribbean. I feel much safer in the Caribbean, better drinking water, and cleaner beaches.

For all those that believe FDR a socialist, think again. When FDR took office in ’32, the price of a bushel of wheat cost less than a pack of gum, 1/2 of real property was foreclosed and sold IN ONE DAY in Arkansas, an estimated 32% of home owners faced forclosure, there was a MAJOR run on the biggest banks across America threatening the solvency of 28-30% of cash assets in America, 1 % of farms below the Mason Dixon line had no electricity, nearly 35% of American were out of work, and on, and on, and on.
Surprisingly, FDR in fact was not an idealogue, he took swift and sweeping actions to prevent America from going down the economic tubes, as a result of 3 previous years of total inaction and denial by the previous administration that occupied the White House.
