What state epitomizes the "freeper" mentality?

[Goathead]

For me, I think it's So. Dakota. Driving through that state on I-90 there are about a gazillion anti-abortion billboards and billboards accusing you of being a "baby-killer" etc.

[Must_B_Free]

1. Georgia

They take great price in racism here.

[secedeeconomically]

2. do people actually live there? lol

[HockeyMom]

3. Texas, Flordia,

or ANYWHERE SOUTH OF THE MASON DIXON LINE?

[Devil Dog Dem]

21. Maryland is south of the Mason-Dixon line. Hardly a freeper state.

Among the bluest of the blues (for now, anyway).

[Zuni]

40. Maryland is not going anywhere

[DebJ]

5. didn't I read that South Dakota has been officially reclassified as

"Frontier" because of the low population density? I'm not kidding.

[Goathead]

12. The prairie states are becoming deserted

Big agribusiness and lack of jobs is forcing the young people to move out.

[BamaLefty]

4. ALABAMA!!!!!!!!!!!

DON'T DISPUTE ME EITHER. ;) You have no idea... :cry:

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

32. I agree. n/t

[ismnotwasm]

6. Eastern Washington

So, I guess more half a state.

[TheFarseer]

7. Kansas is pretty bad for billboards

If SD can vote out the Senate minority leader, they are obviously up there for freeper-ness.

[indianablue]

8. Indiana....

A blue collar state with a southern heart.

Very racist

[LostInAnomie]

18. I whole heartedly concur...

... Our economy is falling apart because it can't keep it's college grads. Schools are shitty because the rednecks here are adamantly opposed to raising taxes no matter how dire the problem. Everyone drives a gas guzzler. And the racism is insane.

I read a article the other day that the newly elected republicans are pushing a bill that will increase funding to suburban schools by taking away money from poorer urban schools. The reason they cite is because of increased enrollments in suburban schools, but the real reason is white flight from urban schools.

[indianablue]

20. GUNS GOD GAYS

That says it all.

[Cerridwen]

9. Nevada - hypocrisy is it's middle name

so to speak.

Brothels, 24 hour drinking, gambling, "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas."

Vegas is in the blue part of the state (Clark County, specifically) and kicks in the majority of state monies. The rest of the state goes red for what, values? Money? Mining? Ranchers?

Blech.

[NightTrain]

24. I lived in Laughlin for a while.

I never knew you could fit so much human waste into one toilet!

[Cerridwen]

25. Yeah? You been to Vegas? Erk.

Then there's Pahrump. Oh geez, don't get me started.

[Fiona]

10. Mississippi

Goddamn

[Deja Q]

11. The State of Insanity, there is no other.

:D

[sadinred]

29. Yes. Freeperism is a state of mind! n/t

[guitar man]

13. Oklahoma

there's a church on every corner here and I have never heard so much whining in my life about how the fundies are being "persecuted" for their beliefs. Go figure.

[CornField]

34. I'll second that

[DrWeird]

14. ALABAMA!!!

[Lenape85]

16. Tie, Bama and Mississippi

[Zuni]

42. Well, Ole Miss is just about dead last in every standard of quality

Is perhaps the single most backward state in the nation.

Utah is the scariest though.

[the Princess]

15. COLORADO!!!

Hands down!

They tried to take away gay rights - we have Focus On the Family and the Altitude makes everyone stupid.

[Lenape85]

17. Dude, CO is so much of a swing state, it ain't even funny

[the Princess]

19. I live here

Swing state My *ss

[Willy Wonka]

36. Well, let's go out and set fire on the FOTF campus

and spray weed killers on their grass to say:

"FOCUS ON YOUR OWN GODDAMN FAMILY!!!"

[NightTrain]

22. The state of stupidity, of course!

[WindRavenX]

23. Eastern Oregon

Oh, sure, Portland and Eugene are nice and progressive, but once you go out into the desert...all Klan and Neo Nazis :scared:

[samplegirl]

26. we have our good share in Ohio

W 04 bumpberstickers are a dead give away

[Left Is Write]

27. I think I live in it.

[sadinred]

28. Well, if you define Freeper as mindless robot sheep

who doesn't think for him/herself (its self?) and drives a huge gas guzzler with Freeper bumperstickers on them, then I've seen them in Ct (don't forget the Grand Wizard- or whatever he is- of the KKK is in Ct) and I've seen them in Pa and in Ma. I've also seen them in Fl and Ga and SC.

I just refuse to admit that I live in the most Freeper-like state. I'm clinging to sanity by a thread here, please don't take it away from me!!!
:evilfrown:

[yurbud]

30. Idaho

former home of Aryan Nations, whitest state in the union.

[faithfull]

31. Kentucky flat out doesn't exist

I've looked, Im from Tennessee, and Ive been to 45 states, and one of the missing 5 is "supposedly" :tinfoilhat: right next to Tennessee - KENTUCKY!!!

You never see lisence plates from there, you never hear of anything happening there (except that horse race which is actually in romania) you dont know of anybody there. It doesnt exist!

Maybe our states are counted by Diebold...cause i keep getting just 49! (and puerto rico)

:donut:

[bettyellen]

33. was it alabam or miss that just voted to keep segregation laws on the book

wherever it was, it gets my vote!

[MissBrooks]

35. UTAH!

That's got to be the worst.

[rhino47]

37. the T of pa

The middle section of Pennsylvania is freepland paradise.

[CO Liberal]

38. Catotonic And Drooling

That pretty much sums up the Freeper "mentality".

44. No way!

I used to listen to FM 99 back in Virginia, are you from Hampton Roads? Damn I hope those people aren't from my hometown that would be truly embarrassing.

[CO Liberal]

47. I'm Originally From New Jersey

I found the "moran" picture on the FM 99 web site.

BTWm I used to go on vacation on the Eastern Shore of Virginia - mainly the Cherrystone Bayshore campground outside Cape Charles, Silver Beach near Exmore, and Tom's Cove in Chincoteague.

[Zuni]

39. Utah!

[DebinTx]

41. Texas - every wingnut totes a gun.

And churches galore!

[Zuni]

43. But Utah is run by a religious cult

[LDS Jock]

49. one person's cult is another person's church

[RagingInMiami]

45. For me it was Arizona

[mak3cats]

46. Denial... (eom)

[Sgent]

48. Oh this is easy

Home to the American Family Association & America Family Radio
Home to Focus on The Family
Home to where 30% blacks support the confederate battleflag on their state flag.
Home to Haley Barbor, Trent Lott, and Ross Barrnett
Home to Antebellum homes and civil war battlefields, where peope still go to lay wreaths on a regular basis.
Home to the state that does not recongize Martin Luther King's birthday -- but does recongize Robert E. Lee's.

This is of course, my home State of Mississippi.

I will give Alabama close seconds, but they have a much better school ssytem, B'ham, Huntsville, and the coast.

I will also give Indiana props for being the most overtly racist state I have ever been in (while I lived there).
