If you want to hate the South, hate me.

I'm probably further left than most of you. There are fewer leftists and dems here in the SouthEAST than there are in other regions of the country. But there are the Skokie, IL and New York cops with a penchant for using broom handles and billy clubs to sodomize those of color or minority sexuality, Rodney King. There are hundreds of lynchings that occurred north of the Mason Dixon line.

Now, please use your Google and find out where the majority of the Civil Rights leaders are from. The battle was down here and we won! What did your state sacrifice to see the walls of discrimination begin to crack?

Believe it or not, there are a lot of free thinkers down here. We actually have black people, gay people, Muslims, Jews, Transgendered people all living down here who are not harassed by Ned Beatty or other fictional people.

But, if you want to continue your hate, please just hate me. You don't know me, I'm just a vague name on the internet. Please don't hate the rest of my family who all vote Democratic. Don't hate my daughter, Don't hate the kids on my street.

They have done nothing to you. Neither have I. But I can take the heat. Hate me then.
