I like FOUR AND OUT, in reference to football, also.
So what kind of people are in the Deep South? Republicans?
It's not "what kind of people are in the Deep South." It's that in the Deep South, you are able to find redneck, racist, dixie lovin', the-south-shall-rise-again blowhard, religious zealots in
far greater numbers, than you are... really anywhere else on the planet. The problem with the stereotype is that its regularly reinforced.
I don't have a problem with the deep south (other than the heat and humidity) but the extreme and vocal antiques that dictate a lot of the conversation that is had in the region make my skin crawl and they, more often than not, are trying to legislate the country back into the agrarian age. If you want to reenact Leviticus on your own alligator farm, be my guest, but holding the country back until your wayward fringe beliefs go national is where I draw the line.
(Seriously, I'm pretty sure it was some county in Alabama that wanted to make the 10 commandments
actual laws not too long ago.)
