I think that there are more blacks in the south then there are a stupid racist white retards and most the people who are proud of the confederate flag dont know half meaning behind waving that flag......

The "Birmingham Six" were not released because they were innocent but because their conviction was "unsafe" . It was because of a procedural error, not an evidential one.

Human Rights - there is an appalling two-page spread in my morning paper, written by a very senior and well-respected political commentator. He is covering the primary in South Carolina.
The headlines are " The state where prejudice lives on" - " Can Obama get racist deep south on his side " and there is a photo of a bunch of nutters waving Confederacy flags and offensive slogans.
I want someone to tell me that this is not a true state of affairs in the southern states given that the commentator is British, Jewish, and so has no axe to grind - just an observer.
I would hate this to be true.
The squeeky wheel gets the oil.... there are still people like that in the south but as mentioned there seems to be a lot less of them than there are blacks. However, many of them are fairly outspoken. If you haven't seen it yet watch the top gear episode (on youtube) where they go into the back of the woods deep south with offensive slogans written on there car and that's an example of a small community....

There is a new channel on digital freeview which is running Top Gear from the last three series every night and every one is a classic. Have you had the "sailing across the channel" one yet ?
I hope not, because you are in for a major treat.

Even worse still, South Carolina is a metropolis of forward thinking when compared to Alabama.[:'(]
