Texas to open fastest US highway with 85 mph limit

54. Dude, that is low. Why is it ok to generalize like that about all the residents in a state?

Where do you draw the line? Not ok about people, what about religion? All ___ are greedy.... I live here and know a huge number of Progressives in Southeast Texas. Human nature is to band together in groups of similar people, either by race, religion, national origin, politics.... They all overlap to some degree, but it does not make hating the "others" ok. Last year, a couple of guys killed a father after a game outside the stadium b/c he was wearing the rivals jersey. It's us vs. them! I have traveled all over the country and liked and appreciated the differences in the people and places. I was not raised in any of those places, so i have no roots there. Therefore, while I may appreciate other places, they are still not home. Texans are taught at an early age to be very proud of our state. We all have to take Texas History in the 7th grade. This makes us look and act like we are better than others, but in reality, people are very similar the world over. Not all of us here subscribe to National Review either, there are millions of wonderful, caring people here in Texas (including my Mom), so please don't dis Mom!
