Title: The American South.

Title: Re: The American South.
Post by: Emperor Reagan on January 24, 2012, 01:50:26 PM: Naturally.

Of course, Arkansas gets $1.41 for every dollar they pay in federal taxes, so the entire state is socialist. Maybe we should beat all 2.9 million people in Arkansas to death and write "liberal" on their foreheads with a sharpie?

Post by: Emperor Reagan on February 14, 2012, 10:07:24 AM: According to the US Census Bureau, it's part of the south region.

Of course, I think of everyplace south of the DC metro area and east of California as being "conservative nutbag land we should just sell to Mexico."

Post by: daisymae on February 16, 2012, 12:33:11 PM: The American south is really different than where I am from. And scary.

I've been to Myrtle Beach a few times, and it is weird to see only black people as maids.

Post by: Zoomie on February 16, 2012, 11:14:53 PM: Come down here to the SW Gulf Coast... there ARE NO BLACK PEOPLE. They have checkpoints and if you ain't got a colored permit, they send you back to Hendry County... where they still have chain gangs...

That's barbaric. Did time stand still down there?
Title: Re: The American South.
Post by: Zoomie on February 17, 2012, 10:01:07 PM: The first sentence is fact. There are no black people (or very, very few) in Lee County. The rest was a joke. Except the part about chain gangs in Hendry County. That part is also true.

The Confederate flag is given the same protection from burning and desecration as the U. S. flag in some states. It is protected from being publicly mutilated, defiled, or otherwise cast in contempt by the laws of five U. S. states: Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina. However, laws banning the desecration of any flag, even if technically remaining in effect, were ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in Texas v. Johnson, and are not enforceable.

Interesting... I smell a retirement plan in that paragraph...

Post by: JimmySystem on February 29, 2012, 04:04:10 PM: Ugh, the confederate flag shit isn't just confined to the south. Here in semi-rural Michigan you're not driving a car if it isn't a large pick up truck with at least one confederate flag on it.

Post by: FAH-Q on February 29, 2012, 06:24:52 PM: That's like a slightly more southern version of Canadian rednecks, huh?
Title: Re: The American South.
Post by: JimmySystem on March 01, 2012, 11:52:15 AM: Yeah, kind of, except ours have more guns and don't know how to drive. But really you just have to look at Detroit and the surrounding suburbs to see the effects of Northern racism. People don't often realize that the North was just as bad as the South in regards to racism.
The girl and I are about to head down to Georgia for the week and I've decided we're going to head through the heart of South Carolina. It'll be an interesting drive.
A few years back I took a Civil War class and we read Confederates in the Attic by Tony Horwitz. It was a pretty interesting look at how the south deals with the Civil War. It seemed the old people who grew up with and knew the Confederate veterans were pretty well adjusted. It was the young kids and people from Union sympathizing counties that were the biggest racists and segregationists.
Title: Re: The American South.
Post by: Zoomie on March 02, 2012, 12:07:40 AM: Meh. Fact of life. People don't like to be told what to do. I grew up believing I was raised by a gentle, liberal Democrat. And then I discovered I was raised by a rabid Dixiecrat. Oh well. Could be worse.

And Myrtle Beach, speaking as a South Carolinian, is merely a place people go to golf, see titties, and get shitty tattoos.

Post by: Tru on March 02, 2012, 10:03:16 PM: Shitty tattoos ruins a woman, half the hookers in town I won't even look at even once because of their garbage tattoos. Mostly gang related but most, gang related or not are, absolute fucking garbage.

Ah sorry lad, separate issues. You were making fun of Danielle so I though you might like to know where she fits in. She is on the reality show American Pickers.

I heard from the Hoffmans about a week ago. They did fair at gold mining this past season on Gold Rush Alaska. They made enough to cover their costs for the year and send each of the crew home with a bit of gold for themselves. Enough to actually call themselves gold miners.

But bottom lines still really all about the reality show and Discovery Channel.
