I think - to your point - we are going to have to start unloading on those type of people. We tend to be polite and tolerant, and they aren’t. That’s going to have to change.
And I see signs that it is....slowly. But our people are getting fed up.
Rural Tennesseans have been raised to be polite to a fault. We have been raised that way for generations. To us, being loud in public is considered rude. But.....threaten us with violence and see how fast the guns come out. When it comes to out of state people right now it’s mostly countered with dirty looks but I see the day coming when we fight back. I don’t think antifa and blm wants a piece of rural Tennessee.
I’m sure other places in rural America are the same.
