As far as the liberal vs conservative stuff goes, the only reason I brought it up is because I think its bad that our understanding of the political spectrum, and therefore, the pool from which we allow ourselves to draw our opinions from, is limited to a minuscule section within a much bigger political spectrum - so minuscule, in fact, that I feel very comfortable with saying there is no difference between the two in this country. Ignoring the context within which our opinions are drawn, and only looking at the sliver of a sliver of what we consider political fact, then yes, there's actually a big difference between liberal and conservative.

I never said I was anti north, and please tell me what type of things teachers from the South do. I'm curious.

First of all, I feel bad for being hostile. My mother-in-law or whatever says things like what you were saying. And what one doesnt have the courage to say to their mother-in-law, say to a stranger on the internet!

But an example off the top of my head would be something like Brown vs Board of Education. Another example would be Scopes Monkey Trial, which is not really a teacher acting insane, but a teacher breaking a law that was insane.

Pup, I would have expected better from you..You think the south doesn't have a problem with gun violence? You need to educate yourself...

We also don't need the state monopolizing the institution of violence in this country. They don't have the greatest track record either...
