I recently moved my family to Columbus, Georgia, and the race situation is one of the pleasant surprises of the move. I find that black and white people in this area are more polite and more relaxed around each other. I also find that the black urban ghetto sub-culture plays a much smaller role here.

Finally, I look around the room at my IT meetings, and I see 35% of the attendees are black, and NOT quota hirings. They know their stuff. Even in northern cities with a sizable black population, the percentages would be much lower. These are all solid engineering/management/IT positions. I DID see almost no Indians/Pakistanis, compared to other cities.

Now, my experience is limited in terms of area and time, but I can confidently say that whatever problems we have with treatment of races and relations between races are noticeably less than they are in the northern cities who deem fit to hector southerners on these topics.

And this from one of the biggest plantation-owning (Louisiana) families in southern history. Huey long would be proud of her.

I wonder if she’s ever heard of Cicero Illinois.

Or East Haven, Connecticut.

I remember, right after Hurricane Katrina, this B^itch took to the cameras and literally said he "wanted to punch President George Bush!"

This was a sitting US Senator, vowing to physically attack the President because of an Act of God.

She is a petulant, childish, violent woman who doesn't have the dignity nor grace of a hippo.

Really?

Seems like we’re a fairly portable society.

Ain’t nothing stopping them from moving.

Seeks to me Chicago is fairly unfriendly to blacks, their health and lives.

It was that way you stupid bitch because for almost one hundred years after The Civil War your party made it that way Ms. Landrieu.

I’m guessing Kerry and Gore were also black.

Mary Landrieu is a racist from a long tradition of racism.

DIMs are mentally disturbed. These criminal losers should never be given positions or authority or power. Mainly, they should be foils for ridicule or shunned. In a number of cases they should be arrested and exiled. They are nefarious nabobs of negativism.

That has been my observation of the South versus the North, too.

Gore's father was a segregationist.
