1st - get over it. That is how progress is made, and I know you realize that. 2nd - My point being we too often we let horrible things slide by so as not to be impolite exactly. and not to be toooooooo rude but 4,000 next to over 50,000? That's 3 months or less of deaths on the road here. but I am serious... time to get over it, or no one can. and frankly considering the racism in this country outside of the south, unless someone has stood up themselves, they got no business talking trash. as randy newman said "you're free to live in a ghetto in Los Angeles". it's time to do it. period. no crap from anyone.

Koan - FDR, and only FDR, ever made a difference in the lives of poor southerners, black or white, until the Civil Rights Act. But after the Civil Rights Act? whohooooooo, get to vote. big fakking deal when everything else remains the same. The days of the North laying crap off on southern politicians is done. Do it or admit they don't really want to anyways. they can talk trash about poor white trash, but the blacks down here are drowning with us. maybe the south, white and black both, could have done well if Britian had stepped in for us. we might have universal healthcare while y'all still got screwed over it (by Nebraska).
