Insulting a group of people doesn’t buy you anything; the people who deserve it don’t care, and you alienate precisely the people you want as allies.It’s your call…

Right?From my experience, there are very few states that aren’t completely full of hicks. (rednecks, hillbillies, small-town yokels, whatever you want to call them)
