wanted to leave this joint. I'm southern but have nothing in common with Republicans or right-wingers and definitely not anywhere near like anyone in the Tea Party. I've witnessed their hate and anger and the way they are determined to cause people and the country harm.
I've wanted to move to a bigger city in the south with like-minded, non-hateful, people but stayed so I could make a difference in a red area (and that decision was good, check out NC 2008). Lately I've wanted to leave the south completely because the stupid and hate has ramped up with permission from people in the 'news' and the haters holding each other up as valid. Then I ask myself, do I want to give up so much treasure that is the south to those haters? Can you imagine what this place would be like if we gave it up to people who have no idea what their actions can do to the natural beauty and resources here?
THIS IS MY SOUTH TOO!
We are good the way we are and we have to acknowledge that people are either negative or positive, that's how we're made up. We have places in the US that are majority Republican with a dot of Dems and places that are majority Dem with scattered Republican. At this time in history the Tea Party haters feel that they can be vocal, we have to show that they can't and stand up to their lies to get them back to 'normal hate levels'.
In the United States there are always going to be haters and there are always going to be lovers, at the end of the day it comes down to how we accept and work with each other.
