Daddy, daddy! Make those bad democrats stop stealing our federal dollars!

Not for nuthin', but I noticed Mississippi has the highest burden rate on the US government.
"Mississippi: 50th, i.e. the MOST fed dependent state in the country (actually tied with NM)"

Additionally, from Wikipedia:

The state (Mississippi) in 2010 had the highest proportion of African Americans in the nation!!

I think you were looking for more reasons to race bait, you worthless insult to the Ethics of our Fathers.

BTW -- Love Field? Where were you?

It could be, I don't know. When doing a little research for a previous question that IB refused to answer I did notice that in 1860 slaves were a majority of the people in Mississippi.

Which of these are causes and which are effects I do not have enough info to say. Originally Posted by Old-T

I saw that, too. It went on to note that many black folks left to move to the industrializing north.

By the way, one of the two items I referenced showed Mississippi being tied with New Mexico. A quick look showed the Black population in NM at about 1%, the lowest reported for any state.

Good counterpoint!

New Mexico's entire state population is only 2.1 million. Some 47% are Hispanic and 10.2% are American Indian (mostly Navajo and Pueblo).

That sounds about right. And about 1% Black.

If I remember correctly, about half the population is in the greater Albuquerque area.

The state has some very different "racial" divides. Navajo & Apache vs Pueblo. Northern "Spanish Americans" vs southern "Mexican Americans". Hispanic vs Native American. Tiwa vs Tewa vs Towa. A very eye opening history for those of us who grew up with nothing about this in the American history classes.

If you are interested in this unique corner of the US suggest you read about Pope (Ortiz, Alfonso. “Popay’s Leadership: A Pueblo Perspective” in El Palacio 86, Winter 1980-81.) and Onate. Not all American history started east of the Mississippi.

What would a Monday morning be without a visit to the asylum to see what the inmates are up to? Reading the “insightful comments” of the three stooges IB, IIFFy, and Gonad is a good way to start, because it is almost impossible for the week to get stupider than their posts.

So, let’s see what we have today, shall we?

Well, IB, you lied about what the question was.

Where is the question you were referring to at #61, you lying SOB? Cite it, Old-Twerp!

You lied about who injected religion into this discussion.

Cite where Old-Twerp was accused of introducing religion into this thread, you lying SOB! Originally Posted by Old-T

IBIdiot is back again, picking nits, flinging shit and filling pits.

You do NOT matter in any discussion, coprophiliac. Not at all.

singlehandedly, you've turned this forum into a nursery school circle jerk!

Congratulations, IBIdiot!

JDIdiot's identical twin brother IB's turning point as a poster came shortly after Obama won his second term in office. Up until that time, it was obvious that he was a dim bulb but he was not the obnoxious dim bulb that he quickly became once Obama won re-election.

Putting on his obnoxious dim bulb hat was how IB chose to deal with the realization that Obama was POTUS for another 4 years. I give credit where credit is due. IB graduated from Dim Bulb University and is now a certified, card carrying, obnoxious Idiot, with a Masters Degree in "Trending" Lunatic!

Not to mention a sore ass loser!

As for me, I am looking forward to IB being a sore ass loser for many years to come.

I believe that was how he chose to deal with the crushing defeat. He can now give a class in being an obnoxious poster. I give credit where credit is due. IB is now a certified, card carrying, obnoxious Idiot! Originally Posted by bigtex

I know that is when I noticed his presence as a racist hate monger.

...You are wrong, and wrong. Of course I titled the thread, and it stands. Or are YOU going to challenge the accuracy of the numbers that IB continues to ignore? What is the purpose of a TITLE? To attract attention? ... Originally Posted by Old-T

You are a troll and attempted to out a member. The TITLE is what you are trying to convey. Others have disproved the meaning of the numbers as they related to your title which you poorly contend has nothing to do with your OP.

Tell me, what did I post that in any way would out anyone? Not "how could IIFFy stupidly out himself", that is not the same thing. I have neither the knowledge, means, nor desire to out anyone. I think what you are actually saying is the IIFFy is mentally incapable of defending himself. Since you feel that way I suggest you take that up with him, not me.

As to the numbers in the reference articles, you are again wrong. All they show--and all I claimed they show--are net $ flow. It is stupid argumentative buffoons like IB who try to insist I am wrong because they aren't the numbers they think should be looked at. IB is perfectly within his rights to start a thread about military spending per state if he wishes, but to claim my numbers are false, or that my numbers mean something different, why that is a lie. But then it IS IB we are talking about so I shouldn't be surprised.

I do know that it was reading his Georgie Z puppy crush, and watching him get orgasmic defending a vigilante's right to recklessly shoot a black teen that made him the Rush L of the RWWs here. That might not be fair to the less demented RWWs here, but so be it. Since then I can more clearly see those traits in his posts: complete disregard for truth, distorting other people's words and steadfastly refusing to admit it when he is caught red handed, always insisting on the last word, and a zealotry for the rise of the second confederate and reestablishment of that wonderful economic system that was the plantation.

So the truth is, i'm not sure when he turned into the thing we now recognize as IBMassa, but it was around that time.

History is fascinating, but frankly it's the current incarnation of the thing we call IBIdiot, and his trusty sidekick Slobbrin, who hijack every thread and turn them into poo flinging contests about themselves.

I can't believe the RWWipes on this board find their verbal diarrhea any more pleasant than we do.
