Then you have never been to MLK Blvd.
I see you are proud to be a "redneck". I am a technical redneck because I actually work out in the sun and my neck turns red (do you work outdoors?). But the term "Redneck" is derogatory to many people. It insinuates that they are a lesser people (as you described well in your little hissy fit) and not up to the standards of society. They are considered uneducated, dumb, ignorant, etc. It's the same idea behind the word ni... "N Word" except we haven't had Redneck beat into our heads as the ultimate no-no.
I was showing that if the roles where reversed in your statement then all hell would break loose (which it did and thank you for proving my point). You could have said simply that white families (or people) live in the outskirts of town while black families (or people) generally live in the town and your post would have been well understood.
Instead you wanted to justify why there are black majority schools vs white majority schools but didn't want to come off as a racist due to your white guilt and threw in a token "white rednecks" (why can't there be black rednecks, are you that racist???) to make yourself down with the homies. It's like a white person throwing in "i have a black friend" so that their statement is more justified. By the way, I have a black friend.
