I can understand a lot of the hate, or at least where its coming from. When I was a little kid and this first came out, most of it went right over my head...now that I am older, much, MUCH, older the fact that they are stereotyping the South in the most negative way possible is crystal clear. But hey, it's still funny and a lot of what they are poking fun at is still true today. I mean, there are places where I make sure my St. Christopher's medal is well hidden out of fear I'll be lynched for being Catholic and I am a white male. I guess what I am saying is that, it is a negative stereotype that certainly only applies to a minority, and a minority that is shrinking every day, but still one that has been well earned. So...chill, its all nothing but jokes, don't be as sensitive as us "PC Liberals" that you are always complaining are too sensitive. They are jokes, they are funny, and as a nation we really need to learn how to laugh at ourselves again.
