i really hate defending the south, but saying "the south is racist" is incredibly disingenuous. it's not as though racism originated from and was confined to the south.

so you have to not only be the inventor of stupidity but also be the only stupid person around to be stupid?

[/ QUOTE ]

no, but people should stop singling out the south as though it was the only place.


edit: yes the south's offenses were particularly egregious, but statements like "the south is/was racist" imply that the north is/was not.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, it implies the North was/is/will always be better. And that's not a racist thing; everything about the North will always be better. I'm pretty sure the previous posters weren't just thinking racism.
