I think I saw it more in NY and PA than I ever saw it in the south.

now don't go losing any more jobs to texas ya hear?
Considering that three CA cities (SD, SJ, and LA) are statistically among the 10 safest in the US, it's working out quite well.

But I don't hate the racist, right-wing south. I'm pulling for it. Hopefully cotton makes a big comeback. That way Alabama + Co. can go back to contributing to this nation's economy again.

yes. it was blacks beating up people like reginald denny after white cops beat up a black man on PCP. like I said, race riots. my source is personal experience. not as good as a public school in NY I know.

Which States Sent The Most Racist Tweets After The Election?

Southern States "win" again. Similar to their victories in the "fattest" and "least educated" studies.

To be honest and equitable, people from The South are also often treated as if they are a homogeneous group to be derided or looked down upon.

There is a clear stereotype of the Southerner as a gap-toothed, gun-totin', Bible-thumpin', ignorant redneck racist wifebeater.

That is just as wrongheaded, baseless and counterproductive as it is to think all black people are lazy, drug-addled criminals and scam artists.

I will not address a claim about tweets. jesus christ. are you 4? I will address your racist comment though. you are saying that the states with the most blacks are fat and uneducated. nice statement about blacks.

Why not? Too busy referencing a civil disturbance that occurred 21 years ago?

The South is still far and away majority white (hence the tweets). Your attempt to blame blacks for the region's shortcomings (which are pretty much endless) has been duly noted.

it wasn't so civil when reginald denny was pulled from his truck and beaten by a pack of wild blacks. and no, the south is black, which is why you hate it. it's also why they are the best at sports. SEC SEC SEC. if the south is so bad, why are whites fleeing to the south from tax hungry states?

So, it looks like this is yet another thing making it seem as if only white people can be racist, right? Because if they came out to California and went to many hispanic neighborhoods, I think that it would look a little different.

Also, have to laugh at the premise basing this in part to somebodies stance on affirmative action. Yes, because being against it makes you such a racist (even if your argument would make you the exact opposite). Not to mention the fact that people are constantly being called racists these days for no reason because it is just so easy.

I live in San Jose and at the rate we are going, we won't be in that top 10 any more. The last few years have seen a jump in murders and we are on pace to have another increase.
