Nah, you can't speak for all of Texas. There are plenty of shitholes in that state, Killeen, Lubbock, College Station, Waco, Houston. There are plenty of racists in Texas. Its a dumb map because of the title, using the N-word doesn't mean you are a racist, considering how widely its used by blacks.

You can't speak for Texas at all, seeing how you never came her in the first place.

I never said that there aren't *** here. I'm saying that the general consensus is that who the *** cares?

I can easily speak for Texas, I lived there for 9 years, I went to school there, I still visit there yearly. My whole family lives there. So, there goes that theory. There is no general consensus, there are millions of people in the state spanning the entire American demographic.

Chaosx and King....

The numbers don't lie. Statistics often do.

The USA has 5% of the world's population.

The USA has 20% of the world's prisoners.

"Land of the free?" Hardly. More like land of the imprisoned.

***. Seriously, I'm calling *** on this.

For one, your tone speaks highly of somebody from the east coast, somebody who thinks they know it all but in reality know little to nothing.

For another, you never mentioned living in Texas until it's "convenient" for you to do so.

I seriously am calling your ***.

A kid stubbed his toe when he was put into a police cruiser after robbing a convenient store?

You can seriously call whatever you want, its very amusing for me. I've never lived on the east coast, I lived in Texas from 2001-2010, went to school at Southwest Texas before they changed the name to Texas State, still go there yearly, went there yearly before I lived there. Grandparents lived in Harlingen and Mission, parents currently live in Katy. Won't ever live there again, doesn't mean I didn't. Pretty sure this is the first time I have ever mentioned this, I've never had a reason to. But guess what, its all true.

The people looting and setting fires are thugs by definition, that's not racist. Acting as if an entire racial demographic are rioting is.

California should be glowing red.
I think this is called projection.
Nah, projection is when you insist that conservatives hate transgendered people because we won't call them a different sex than they really are.
Hmm, that doesn't make any sense.

The writer seems to have a high opinion of the "Yankeedom" sector over any other in his analysis. Let's see, he's based in... Massachusetts, part of that area. Hurray for obvious bias.

Oh c'mon. Don't go that route. IIRC he went to a university geographically in between both our alma maters. Don't discredit him over his opinions about his experiences. So LCD.

EDIT: Oops. Should have scrolled down. He already covered it.

His tone says otherwise, and how come he never even spoke about his apparent heritage prior to this, when it is most convenient for him to disclose it?

You talked about DFW area a lot prior to us talking about various things. So, I don't disbelieve you on where you are. Him, however....
