These are some of the poorest states. I would love to throw money and jobs at them and raise their standards of living.

However, they keep threatening to illegalize or harm my friends, my family, me. It's like trying to reach out to a flipping Dalek.

In other words: there goes my summer vacation in Maine. No one's happy with this. Get a grip, you guys, so I can give you my money again.

Since the end of segregation, the hills are becoming fewer and smaller, as change becomes quicker and thorough.

Probably so. Also an oblique attack at trans as they cant do anything legally to them.

I live just down the road from the intrepid and inspirational Guv McBigotfacery and I've been frightened to go to the men's room for months. So I've been peeing and poopin' in the woods behind my house as Jesus wanted. It's safer and the area wildlife aren't predators like the funny lookin' critters HB2 is trying to reign in. Can't we send them to Mexico or something? 'Merica! (Fuck, I cannot wait to vote that moron out!)

Unfortunately the extra fundies bred like rabbits around there and they're still passing on their super-conservative "what's good for the church is good for me" style views.

Yeah, but then you also have Josiah Duggar (pictured below). And his sister Jinger will probably also break out too. I can see a time where the RWNJs stop trying to enact laws and the representation in the government is proportional to their numbers. The gerrymandering will end. Then they can live their "lifestyle" in their "communities" and stop trying to pretend that they are the "norm".https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

Did you see the Bonus video? Yeah, I'm just glad that he was able to express his art to the end, that he left us Fans such a good farewell album and that he was able to handle his illness in private. After what poor Freddie went through...

They do. Out canvassing and attending rallies for Bernie during the winter in SC and GA, I had so many conversations with white, Christian children. Always one on one. It was sad. Lots of kids that one day soon will get to be the Redneck Liberal in the light of day.
