Take out the narrow minded Jesus freaks than we would be like the rest of the country. We are also very slow to change. Why that seems to more of a Southern thing?FreeOscarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519953981397395954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-659346512371488571.post-5940134291638889472007-10-09T10:49:00.000-07:002007-10-09T10:49:00.000-07:00Dancing with ignorance is not limited to the south...Dancing with ignorance is not limited to the south. I grew up in the north. There were just as many ignorant rednecked morons in rural upstate NY. <BR/>I've spent LOTS of time working in LA and traveling other parts of CA and man, what a crop of rednecked morons they have out there.<BR/>But yea, it somehow seems more pertinent down here for some reason.SagaciousHillbillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09511441325695460501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-659346512371488571.post-81704927413721342172007-10-09T08:05:00.000-07:002007-10-09T08:05:00.000-07:00growing up in the south, there were many dances wi...growing up in the south, there were many dances with ignorance. the one that sticks out the most to me is when my highschool did "grease", and they picked the white girl to be the lead part, even though the hispanic girl sang way better because they didn't want to have an interacial couple. tsk tsk.Tequila Mockingbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10898464891080149448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-659346512371488571.post-50146447721971433452007-10-09T07:16:00.000-07:002007-10-09T07:16:00.000-07:00I was born & raised in SC & now I live in VA.

I understand the dilemma of a beautiful area filled with dumbasses.<BR/><BR/>People need to realize that worse things are going on in their high schools than novels with some sex & violence. Maybe it’s the fact that we have high schoolers who can’t read above a middle school level, & we keep slipping further down the education ladder. Maybe they are right.

I still think it is a beautiful state with some of the most beautiful scenery in the country, but the politics sometime scare me. <BR/><BR/>Of course they don't scare me as much as the politics of Utah.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12325465720003721471noreply@blogger.com
