The most 'racist state' is clearly North Carolina, hedge. Nice try though.

NC voted for Obama in 2008 and came close in 2012. I wonder what percentage of the popular vote Obama got in Kentucky?

We were smart enough NOT to vote for that clown.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_St ... ucky,_2012

.........racism is still alive and well across the nation, and North Carolina is no exception. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), there are 939 active hate groups in the U.S. — 33 of which exist in North Carolina. The Atlanta Black Star website’s 2014 list of the “Top 10 Most Racist States in America” notes North Carolina as fifth. Its methodology is based on two criteria — a quotient derived from racism-revealing tweets made after Obama’s 2012 re-election (by geographical location), added to the number of KKK organizations within the state. North Carolina is home to nine KKK organizations, the third highest of any state.

Actually, every individual constitutes a distinct hate group...

Especially when it comes to your existence.

actually I'd say Idaho is the most racist state

Agreed. I'd say North Carolina is the dumbest though.

In defense of Hedge's argument about Kentucky, he's not that far wrong...... http://www.thetoptens.com/most-racists-states-us/

I still think NC should be in the Top 5 though, considering their history against blacks.

Lately it seems like people around here are more racist against hispanics than blacks...

Funny enough, one of the analysts in my organization is the aunt of two of the kids on the Monmouth bench. She waited months to tell me because she wasn't sure if she was proud of them yet. On the Iona team, one of the kids is the son of my oldest brother's high school girlfriend. I think she ran onto the court, if my intel is right (I didn't watch the clip, but my middle brother texted me that she was out there swinging pocketbooks).

Because the pay is good.

(seriously, most 5 Star basketball recruits don't even really know what racism truly feels like. They're coddled and protected through all phases. It doesn't really register unless they have older, less talented male siblings)

Blacks only have problems with male hispanics. They're just trynna smash when it comes to the females; even the squat, fat ones.

One of the Iona kids who was swinging is from here, transferred from Wake Forest as a grad student. He's a super nice, friendly guy so Monmouth must have done something to file him like that

actually that's why I think Trump is going to do well with Black voters.

Who is most likely impacted by reducing the number of illegals and hell, legal immigrants in this country?

Immigrants by and large ain't coming in to take jobs away from accountants and IT professionals (well maybe those asians ones are ...fuck those asians)

so African Americans have something to gain from a guy who goes hardline on throwing them out - roofers and cab driver jobs would be plentiful

Yeah, but don't underestimate the brand problem Republicans have with Blacks. At this point, the best a Republican candidate can wish for is for Blacks to by-and-large abstain.

The GOP needs to kick the nerds to the curb and root out the yahoos.

We should do that in here as well...
