Even the hard blue states are red except for the cities. What is it about the country that makes people such ignorant bigots?
The bigotry is driven by the sad fact that the only black people country folk ever see are on Fox News rioting or in jail while city dwellers deal with blacks, Hispanics, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists and Asians as friends and co workers day in and day out.
The rural ignorance is just as simple, while City folk have colleges, museums, theater, concerts, multi cultural restaurants, cool bars, arenas and trade shows and endless places to go to occupy their time, country folk are limited to social lives that have only Walmart and Carl Jr parking lots, gun ranges, Friday night football, Rush Limbaugh, Fox news, shine, meth, opiates and Jesus to occupy their time.
