I'm not sure why, but SC just seems to be especially racist, really hanging onto it more than other southern states, though we're clearly not without fault, nor are the rest of the States. For some reason we just don't have as many here--maybe it is because we were and are still the epicenter, had Wallace for so long, and got tired of the ridicule and scorn more than other states. But we don't usually have cop shootings, and other terrible things, though I'm sure we have the normal amount of harassing the poor, and trying to fine and fee them to death, using the drug war as an excuse. THAT, is everywhere.
