Give up, John. You'll get nowhere. Someone's been having a bad day for the past decade or so.

I'm sorry but this discussion is beyond commical.
Quote #1 Blondandfun - Only Atlanta believes that they are the capitol of the south... no one outside of Atlanta agrees.
Quote #2 Johnatl - Acutally, the rest of the county agrees that Atlanta is the capitol of the south... check out this forum and see for yourself.
Quote #3 Blondandfun - Well thats because Atlanta has magically tricked everyone else in the country to believe them. Disregard my first quote, everyone outside of Atlanta has been tricked... except for me. And now my sole mission is to convince Atlanta and the rest of the world that they are all wrong and I am right. Good thing I'm the only one smart enough to figure this out.

This is also the ONLY major city in the country that didn't explode into riots after MLK was killed. Why do you suppose that was? The only Southern politician of any color to testify before Congress in favor of passing the Civil Rights Act was anglo Mayor Hartsfield of Atlanta. How do you explain that?
And sorry, but Atlanta is THE undisputed capitol of the South. Any well-traveled business person knows this. Check out the thread on the U.S. forum titled "Capitol of the South," and see what the rest of the coutry says.

I can't be certain you feel this way, but because you mention capitol of civil rights AND capitol of the south in the same post, I would assume that you incorrectly think that southern culture is completely defined by slavery.
If that's the case, then that is ignorance. Southern Culture is defined, in my opinion, by civility and the heritage we had. To only view the negative aspects of Southern culture is ignorant, and only further reinforces the opinions outside the South. Atlanta does a good job of reinforcing the negative aspects of southern culture by it's claim of being the capitol of the south, and most people who live in the south agree with me.
But this is off-topic, has nothing to do with how much Atlanta sucks and/or why it does

Out of sheer curiosity... exactly what city do you believe IS the capitol of the South?

If there is anything beyond ignorance around here, it is your incomprehensible blathering.
Why don't you share with us which enlightened area of the South you hail from that has so warped your view of the world?

Blathering, drivel, warped view, ignorance... why don't you further elaborate instead of name calling.
Your posts are definitely more pointless than mine, and I am considering reporting you if you can't speak on the topic.
Enlighten me or shut up.
