I am starting a pledge ...please join me. [View all]

I hereby pledge not to denigrate people from the southern states here on DU forums. I understand that every state has its share of assholes & bigots, some more than others, and also understand that there are good democrats everywhere. People from regions where democrats are poorly represented need our support and not our derision. I will not hold people geography against them implicitly or explicitly through my comments here on DU.

I absolutely and positively will refrain from region based discrimination and will pledge to make democrats from all state feel welcome here on DU.
