Of course there is racism in the South but it wasn't until I attended college with some people from New Jersey that I heard words like "WOPS", "MICKS", "KICHS", and they used the "n" word more than I had heard in my life and I was born in Savannah,Ga. and graduated from Highschool in Atlanta. This southern racism seems to start at the Canadian border. And as Pete pointed out Gov. Purdue is very good at "ZIGZAGGING" to suite his political polices. Responce is more to Lee than “Pete”.
