I apologize if you were only talking about your hometown. In recent threads we’ve had others talking about Mississippi in general, a state I’ve visited often and with which I’m quite familiar.
Thank you, I accept your apology.
However, know that Mississippi IS my home and I am very proud of her. The state hasn’t always been right, her people haven’t always been right, but it is a great place nonetheless. No state in the US has a perfect history.
To one degree or another ALL states and all groups of people have been guilty of persecution, murder, debauchery, and slavery whether legalized or just state condoned at one time or another. Judging a state or any other group of people by what has happened in their past is just another liberal way of pushing them down and keeping them in their place. Such is not appropriate in a conservative forum.
