I came into this thread expecting ignorant attitudes toward the South, I completely saw it coming, yet hoped I would not see that. I realize that you've seen many opposing opinions as to what you've said JP, but I'm completely with shakran on all this.
If there's one thing that pisses me off, it's South-bashing. I think the reason it bothers me so badly is that I'm from the South, and I obliterate basically every Southern stereotype there is. I have a very high IQ, I have a thing for black girls, and my uncle is a homosexual. So when people call us all backwards, racist, inbred, retard rednecks, I kinda take offense to that. If you see my point.

Why is it we bothered with the civil war again? We should have let the fuckers leave and just snuck all the slaves out when they were too busy having another bigot rally in Billy Jo Bob's yard.

This is a prime example of what I'm talking about, the above quote is the epitome of ignorance, and represents everything the TFP strives to demote. I'm not trying to get you banned meepa, but please keep comments like that to yourself next time. I'm a incredibly Southern person, and very much so proud of that, and I am completely the opposite of everything you obviously THINK the South to be. Next time, know what you're talking about before you say something.
As for the topic of this thread, again, I have a gay uncle, so I think that Virginia's law is bullshit. But many states across the entire Union are considering gay marriage laws, so don't make this a redneck-intolerance thing, because it's not.
EDIT: OK, so it IS a redneck-intolerance thing, but its not a SOUTHERN redneck-intolerance thing. There are ignorant asses everywhere.
