Scary new survey results from the South.

Some gems:

In Mississippi:

Q22 Do you think Barack Obama is a Christian or a
Muslim, or are you not sure?
Christian.......................................................... 12%
Muslim ............................................................ 52%
Not sure .......................................................... 36%
Q23 Do you believe in evolution, or not?
Believe in evolution......................................... 22%
Do not ............................................................. 66%
Not sure .......................................................... 11%
Q24 Do you think that interracial marriage should be
legal or illegal?
Legal............................................................... 54%
Illegal .............................................................. 29%
Not sure .......................................................... 17%

And now in Alabama:

Q22 Do you think Barack Obama is a Christian or a
Muslim, or are you not sure?
Christian.......................................................... 14%
Muslim ............................................................ 45%
Not sure .......................................................... 41%
Q23 Do you believe in evolution, or not?
Believe in evolution......................................... 26%
Do not ............................................................. 60%
Not sure .......................................................... 13%
Q24 Do you think that interracial marriage should be
legal or illegal?
Legal............................................................... 67%
Illegal .............................................................. 21%
Not sure .......................................................... 12%

That's right, boys and girls. In Mississippi, only HALF the people think interracial marriages should be legal. Not talking about same sex marriages, here, but banned in the 60s black/white or white/asian, etc. Half.

Only 22 and 26%, respectively, are aware of science, apparently.

Oh, and only 12% and 14% pay actual attention to reality enough to know that Obama is a christian....

And these people's votes count just as much as people who aren't complete morons.

Why were we AGAINST the south seceding, again? Can someone remind me?

who's against the south seceding? not me, fuck 'em

fun fact: the line between The North and The South, if the civil war had continued, would've stretched west and divided kansas against nebraska

i will fuckin strike down some kansans

[Arlos]

My life-long detestation of the Midwest is the result of me having had the misfortune to live for 2.5 years in Wichita when I was 7 1/2. Kansas in the late 70s.... yeah.

Did you guys see the alex pelosi video on bill maher last friday ? She talked to these people it was scary. Also if the south wanted to be its own country I would be cool with it for the most part.

These are the people that get republicans elected. Scary stuff.

ha, word. (though we have family in kansas, sadface. they seem OK with interracial marriage, though i'm sure they're anti-evolution and i don't know where they'd stand on the christian/muslim debate. sadder face.)

[Kramer]

i've lived in Houston my whole life... i'd be down with fleeing to New Mexico to escape total annihilation though

[Spazz]

Look at and listen to these people.

[Zanchief]

People on this very board, who have attended accredited charter schools, claim Obama is a Muslim. You don't have to go to Mississippi to find the crazies, unfortunately.

What I find interesting is that my father is as much a redneck as any of those in that video. He was born and raised in Mississippi and Florida. He's also one of the most open minded and accepting people I've ever met. They exist but are very rare in the south. The rest of my family down there with the exception of one of his brothers can go fuck themselves.

I'd say they aren't that rare. They just aren't as outspoken as the ones that give them a bad name.

Having grown up in rural Florida, I'd disagree. Ignorant, cocksuckers.

True story. Jacksonville is probably 90% retard, especially as you inch near Middleburg.
