That means he's not ignorant, he's "ignant"!
We had a case in Chicago some years ago where a bag of cash literally "fell out of" an armored car right in the downtown area. Some guy found it, and kept it (until he was caught). If you listen to some of the "legal theorists" here, if only he had called the bank's 1-800 number in Kansas City and someone blew him off, the bag of cash is rightfully his.
Do you seriously think that folks from Chicago say the word ignorant sounding like, “Ignant”??? Have you EVER even been to Chicago? Chicagoans do NOT speak like that... In fact, the national broadcast journalist enunciation most closely resembles the “Chicago accent”.
Besides, that was just uncalled for...
