Nowhere did I say "every single person from the south ever is stupid."

I didn't say you did, GP. Nor did you say that all southerners are racist. What you did say was that you're trying to quit making fun of the south. I'm simply trying to point out that making fun of an entire group of people, as you're trying so hard to quit doing, is wrong whether it's based on race or geography. If you had said that you're trying to quit making fun of Asian-Americans, you would be flamed endlessly and possibly banned from GC.
Is Ron Wilson an idiot? Yes. Are the midwesterners who wear shorts when it's 20 below outside idiots? Yes. Is it because they are from a particular place? No. (Okay, maybe the place is relevant because of the weather, but you get the point ...) There are idiots everywhere, but for some reason people think they can magnify the idiocy by emphasizing that a particular idiot is from the south. I think we can both agree that it's not relevant.
