When I worked at the unemployment office in Iowa many of the better-off blacks were headed to Atlanta.

They are. It’s not just an “I feel like I’m under attack.”

the South has been America’s whipping boy, blamed for all of its ills, since the 1840’s.

When this poll says with Southerners, I’m sure that means whites living in the South, which includes a lot of people who have migrated from the north to the south. If they just polled those whose ancestors have lived in the South since before the War Between the States, the majority of them would say agree that they, they’re history and their ancestors are under attack continuously.

Yes Atlanta is the black Mecca because of MLK. But we are being invaded first by all the illegals and now its the Muslims. They are everywhere. Also a lot of Indians on the H1-B.

Polling on whether or not someone would vote for Trump was skewed several percentage points toward Clinton because people were afraid to admit they’d vote for Trump.
I expect the same bias - giving the liberal approved answer out of fear of attack - is involved.

Congress was supposed to keep USA the same natural kind via naturalization.

After WBTS Congress decided naturalization meant unnaturalizing and it continues today.

All naturalization acts since 1870 are really UnNaturalization acts.

Very few understand what really happened and they don’t understand what naturalization means.

Barack Obama wasn’t born the same natural kind.

From my first day in the military (1970), every time I opened my mouth all I heard were taunts of "grit"..."how Yall" from other guys, mainly New Yorkers or New Jersyites who thought it was great fun.

I learned to lose my accent and to say that I was from some where else. This wasn't normal kidding, that I could understand but this was real prejudice. So this feeling by southerners isn't new.

I thought it was the yankees in Pennsylvania that gave Trump the victory in the presidential election...maybe it was that ‘Alabama’ part of PA.

The South insisted Congress only citizenship power would be keeping USA the same natural kind via naturalization. It's in the Constitution, Article 1, Section 8. After WBTS Congress said...Whites and minorities were the same kindred blood, the same natural kind. The Founders said Americans were the same kindred blood, minorities were not permitted citizenship and they could not immigrate. image

Grew up in segregated Memphis. Spent working life in lily white Appalachia. Retired now in diverse Upstate South Carolina. With this last change in environment, I experience culture shock rather than attack.

Some of us white northerners are under attack too.

When I moved to North Carolina in the early 80's southerners weren't very friendly to "yankees".

White southerners ARE under attack from Democrats, the media, pop culture and Millinneals.

They are the ones branded “non college educated whites” to shame them for not going some liberal cesspoll university and going to work. These are the folks who at one time were acknowledged as blue collar, middle class workers. A ntegral part of our nations economy. Now they are called Nazis, white isists, hicks and are everything Millennials have been taught to hate about America.

I am Southern California bred and born. While it wasnt always this way, the place is a Socialist cesspool of hell now. The people here overwhelmingly love the Clintons and 0bama and hate Trump, America and “non hispanic whites.” But me, I stand with our Southeren white folks and honor their hard work and contributions to America. I hope one day in the not too distant future to be living in Tennessee with many of these good folks.
