HollowDweller I was teasing about the appalachia Dumbass and said so in my post. It's not edited so go back and read it.
As far as the "Hillbilly Dumbass" maybe you would prefer I said "Trailer Trash" instead or perhaps "Redneck?"
I grew up back in the hills and so if hillbilly fits anyone it fits me.
BUT and it's a
BIG BOLD "BUT" I brought myself out of the ignorance and the idea that I was nothing but a
Big Dumbass Hillbilly, Redneck, Trailer Trash, American Indian Kid who wasn't going to amount to anything
Although the "Redneck" still fits as, Hey!!!! I can't change my color!!!!
So if you want to talk stereotypes and hurt feelings you better get yourself in line , because with my age I imagine you're a long ways behind me in chalking up points.
I grew up in
Trailer Camps so I know what "Trailer Trash" is as well and I brought myself out of that too.
I live on Social Security Disability so you don't need to go there either.
The only thing I can say is if the dumbass shoe fits then wear it, If not then be easier with your words and try to understand what others are saying.
Do you have any kids or relatives that belong on the Jerry Springer Show?!?!?!
Well by the Gawds I do and I'm not ashamed to admit it. They chose and are still choosing their lifestyle!!!!
They damned sure wasn't raised that way!!!!
And I choose Not Too!!!! Even though I
Was raised that way!!!! Being an American Indian in a predominately White World taught me how Racism HURTS!!!! And when something hurts "YOU" and "You" have "Brain's Enough" to dispell the "Ignorance"
you learn Very Quickly how it hurts Others.
And then you have the audacity to attack me when you're spouting racist remarks yourself.

And this part of your post Really tells me what kind of person you are and how you feel about our African-American, African, Black
BRETHREN who walk
With Us on this little round orb we call home.
You probably think the same way about us "Red n*ggers" of which I have been called.
We're all brothers and sisters that walk on this planet no matter our race, creed, religion, ignorance, or what. It's just that some people are trying to make things better for themselves and those around them.
As far as I'm concerned those who go around spouting words like "stupid n*gger" are still trying to foment hatred and ignorance.
:grumpy:
So if the phrases I used fit you then wear them. I will still battle you and your kind no matter from whence you spring!!!! If not then listen to my words and maybe you can bring yourself out of the hatred and be a force for the good in this world.
We'll see where it goes, but I have my doubt's and notion's.
