...this was only Saint Louis. I lived there. It's a big town, sure.
There are thousands of little towns outside the River City that have lots of people, who could only aspire to being called "rednecks." The Klan is active there. So are nutball militia groups like the Minutemen. The Hills Have Eyes...slightly blurry from their last taste of paint thinner...and those eyes narrow dangerously at the sight of folks the shade of Obama.
Don't get your hopes for Missouri up with this one big demonstration in one little corner of a red state.
