I've been watching this BBC automotive show, "Top Gear". In one segment, the three hosts tour the American south in old cars they've bought for 1000 pounds. They drive from like Florida to New Orleans.

Passing through Alabama, they are given a challenge from the shows producer to paint offensive (to the locals) slogans on each other's cars. So, they come up with stuff like "Bush = shit", "Hillary for President", "rednecks are morons", etc.

They proceed to get physically assaulted at the first gas stop! Then, pickups full of armed rednecks appear and chase them down the highway shooting! They find a place to pull off and wash off the offensive slogans.

Finally, they get to New Orleans and find it's a total wreck STILL, a YEAR after Katrina. Their advice to all foreigners - skip the US!
