History tells us that in this country we’re constantly held back - TopicsExpress



          

History tells us that in this country we’re constantly held back from progress by these Southern states which thrive on ignorance. First we had slavery. The southern states nearly ripped this country apart just so that they could continue to own other human beings and deny African Americans their freedom. This country literally fought a civil war because of the South. Its ironic that the states fighting to keep slavery claimed to be “defending their Constitutional rights.” Only in an ignorant, delusional mind could you want to secede from a country because that very same Constitution you claim to hold so dear doesn’t support your ignorance. Enough is enough. I’m sick and tired of these backwards, knuckle-dragging Southern states constantly holding this country back. Every time we try to make a bold move and move this country forward, we have to battle with people who long for the days of segregation, women being barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen and a gun holster on everyone’s belt. It’s been over 150 years since the civil war and somehow generation after generation of people within these Southern states remain just as ignorant today as they were back then.
