put up...
Ok, how about the last 3 of your postings:

One:
Quote:
"Either way I find some of CA Sur's rationalizations to be "way out there".
Two:
Quote:
"First you say some southerners hate the west because it abbhors racism, then you go into the people care about CA and are jealous. All of that is wrong".
Three:
Quote:
"Feeble attempt once again to draw attention away from you being wrong. I told you straight up what I thought was wrong. Pseudo-intelligence aside, you have no credibility at all when it comes to the south or anything southern. You sit here and explain things that you know nothing about, that is my issue. The south is much larger than SoCal and is split into more regional sub cultures (not ethnic), yet you think you can generalize that entire region. The minority of the people who fit into your generalizations also exist in CA as well as any other state".
You've claimed I am wrong 6 times in your above words but never explain how I am wrong. They're your words.

are you really arguing about whether or not he's said that you were wrong? i told you exactly why you were wrong, you should either refute what ive written or move along. who knows, we may now be in agreement

I said that some of your rationalizations are out there. Notice that I was speaking of you in general in that post. I never said that anything you said in this post was wrong at that moment. NO WHERE DOES THAT SAY CALIFORNIA SUR IS WRONG ABOUT.... an notice the keyword SOME.

Notice that eveything else was after you initially accused me of saying you were wrong.
This is when I went back and told you what I thought was wrong, even though I didn't initially acknowledge that you were wrong.

Also note that you just quoted me telling you why I felt you were wrong, invalidating most of your argument with me where you claimed I wouldn't say.

He won't. He's going to stretch out this petty (if not stupid) argument with me to draw attention away from or to avoid your post.

I realize I am just one person, and that I do not speak for all Southerners, but I don't hate California. I have never been there so I can't make that type of judgement. I think it would be cool to visit there, but from what I have been told by a friend who moved to the San Diego area it's very expensive compared to Mississippi.

As for the diverse racial makeup in California, I would welcome that as I don't hate or judge anyone, plus I bet it gives the state a great selection of really good food...

You really are a trip. Your words are clear yet you continue to deny them even when I re-post them . And yet you have not once identified where I am "wrong" You got to be better than that. It's your credibility bro.

You continue to talk about me and not the subject then claim I am doing the same thing. If you are a Republican you sure know your stuff in distorting the truth.

Ok, This is my last time addressing this.

First of all I made it clear that I was talking about you and not the topic. I kept trying to get that point across to you. Now, thanks to us the topic is halfway hijacked and pointless.


1. I stated that you had never been to the South and that I found some of your rationalizations are way out there. I was referring to your statements in general. Since I was making a general comment about you to someone else vs. quoting you I felt no need to clarify that unless asked.

2. You get the idea that I'm saying you were wrong.

3. Even though I didn't initially say you were wrong, I went back and told you what I thought was wrong.

4. You claim that I'm accusing you being wrong but I can't say how.

5. I elaborate

6. see 4.

7. petty argument continues

8. I acknowledge that I didn't initially say that you were wrong.

9. You quote me with 5. invalidating 4. in the process.

10. You say I'm twisting things and would make a good republican.

There, I made it as basic as I could for you. It probably won't make a difference to you, but that's how it happened. The previous posts should sum that up. Good night.
