    Not ALL obviously... but they sure do value and promote utter freaking ignorance like it's gold.

    No, not all. I think the problem is a shortage of good schools down there (considered moving to the south, decided after researching the school systems to stay up here). Without a decent education, even a naturally smart person can come out sounding ignorant. That said, I have met some very bright, progressive southerners, and some of the nicest people I've met we're from the South. You just had the misfortune of encountering some seriously dumb people.

    I think anyone who lumps everyone into a stereotypical character be it in the South or ANYWHERE in the WORLD IS "stupid". The very folks you belittled in the South would probably get a laugh out of your "ignorance" when it came down to fending off an alligator attack on their "turf" !

    I think "intelligence" is relative, and the smarter ones apply it to things that are more relevant to THEIR "World".

    I suspect for the guys to which you refer, the eating habits of an alligator and knowing the location of a potential attack was more important than the specifics of World Geographyand politics.

    Get a hold of an Academic Scholar well versed in World Affairs and related topics, and reassess your own proficiency. Good luck. Peace.

    I know people in the Southwest are all stupid. They move to a desert then complain about droughts and want us Northerners to give them our water. If you want water, don't live in a desert.
