Thanks, Pub & BH- I actually think some of our problems are due to the fact that we are so close to YOUR state! (didn't the Klan start there?) I agree there are plenty of reasons to hate my state, too, though.
I grew up in a "Blue State" but the head of a major white supremist group lived two towns over. It was also frustrating becuase while my hometown is a college town.
Being biracial myself,I know firsthand what your dughter is experiencing. Even in the state where I live now, which is very liberal, I still encounter problems from BOTH sides.
If you ever want to talk about this stuff, email me. (seeking_solace@adelphia.net
Ugh - I didn't see the post, but the comments reflect that you are probably in or near my home state. A major klan leader lived about 10 minutes away from my parents' house. More than once they've marched around the county courthouse. I hate how these idiots reflect on the state and the rest of us either from there or who still live there.

Holy crap. They sure start young, don't they?? I'm sorry. That's so horrible. I'm adding this to my list of reasons why I hate your state.

Yes, in fact, the Klan headquarters are rumored to be in a town very close to us. Ugh.

It didn't START here. They just sort of liked it here. They were founded by Nathan Bedford Forrest in Mississippi after the Civil War.
