Ah, but the problem is, I never once mentioned "Southerners" or "working class" in my original comment. I made no sectional reference whatsoever, and my comment - if you would bother to stop having a hissy fit for a minute and actually *think* about it - was most definitely not about "working class" people, since working class people don't, among other things, sit around collecting a welfare check and watching Jerry Springer (they "work," which is why they're called "working class").
These are things YOU *assumed* about my post, and the fact that in making the assumption, you identified Southerners and working-class people, shows that it is YOU, not me, who implicitly associates these groups with being welfare-consuming trailer trash.
In fact, the only example I gave of the type of person I was talking about was Levi Johnson - who is definitely not working class (since he appears to not be into "working" eh?), and who lives about as far from the South as it is possible to be and still inhabit territory of the United States of America.
Sorry, but YOU'RE the one with anti-Southern, anti-working class prejudices, since you're the one who assumes these groups to be welfare monarchs.
Like I said, stop being a hater.
Grow up and lay off the childish posts.
Childish? What's childish about pointing out that your logic is flawed, and your implicit premises are prejudicial?
You are denying that this was about Southerners, not that it would not be disgusting to mock any working class and poor people like this, even attacking their faith and mocking the name of Jesus, or as you say “Sweet Jeeeeeesus”?
You really don’t sound like a social conservative with this kind of vitriol and bigotry, you seem to despise Southerners and America’s largest retailer for some reason.
“Another group that I’ve noticed this to be the case with, at least as far as assumptions based on stereotypes are made, is poor rural whites - you know, the stereotypical trailer-dwelling, truck on blocks in the front yard, Wal-Mart-shopping, good ol’ boy types. Fact is, these folks generally are not religious. They may go on TV and say stuff like “Sweet Jeeeeeesus, I thought that thar tornader was gonna take ma trailer!” but that doesn’t mean you’ll find these folks in church on Sunday in large numbers. Actually, you won’t. Trust me, I’ve done a lot of door-to-door and visitation in a lot of neighbourhoods, and this type of folk talk a lot about God and they sound religious, but don’t typically have much to do with religion.
Yet, when they vote Democrat so that the welfare will keep flowing, you then have people like meadsjn squawking about all these “SoCons” are voting Democrat. Except these folks aren’t SoCons. They aren’t really against abortion, and to the extent that they would oppose gay marriage, it would not be out of any moral or philosophical principles, but instead would be because “them queers jus’ ain’t raaaht.”
