I can't believe you get to post on Poli and I haven't been able to since 2015

Well, let me rethink this...

Yes. But I was merely responding to someone who mentioned the stereotype about Louisiana people traveling via alligator through swamps.

I've never been accused of riding an alligator to my camp in the marsh or swamp by my friends that live in other parts of the country...

I don't think a lot of people realize how dangerous parts of the South are, like BR, New Orleans, and Jackson.

That's my point. The stereotype is that the South is hospitable and safe, but it's not.

St Louis, Baltimore, Newark Jersey, Detroit, Cleveland are all more dangerous

There are none.

Stereotypes exist for a reason.

People often confuse education with wisdom.

Education is the acquisition of knowledge.
Wisdom is the practical application of knowledge.

Man, those blue "highly educated" States should just cut loose those dumb red-reddish States. Just let them go be to their uneducated selves in their own country. The blue States would be so much better off.

I hear ya. Good luck in your quest to find a doctor that suits you instead of the Slumdog Millionaires you loathe.

We had a crowd from California in Court this morning, mumbling about "Jim Crow" and "the racist South."

It was a fight over property ownership where all the parties were black.
