Actually, that link says they're ranked second in that.

Actually Washington DC isn't a state.

Would you be okay with describing those 46% of Mississippi Republicans as holding racist views?

No! But can you believe that this is news worthy?

Thank God people are allowed to have their own views on different issues and not worry about the thought police or manipulation of how people are allowed to think through bully tactics used by the liberal media.

Do you think that liberals are the worlds largest Hate Group?

[heckofajobbrownie]

...okaaay.

Steve? What do you think? Yes or no?

Tell me your answer, Steve. We're not talking about all the other stuff you'd like to change the subject to. Don't take from someone else's post. Just tell me what you think. Are those people racist or not? If yes, why? If not, why not?

Or just say yes or no.

Where did you learn to read, Mississippi?

I agreed with Chicopee.

Yes, without bickering over a definition, I'd call that racist.

Now..........

So what?

That's racist. I wish they had asked what the person's race was, though I suppose a poll of 400 republicans in the south is probably not the most diverse bunch.

Thank you, Steve.

Ha. Yes, that would be a little redundant.

I spend a lot of time in Mississippi and I find this result to be stunning. It's certainly not the most progressive place in the world, but the idea that more than half either think interracial marriage should be illegal or aren't sure, in 2011, is quite the eye opener.

I don't think the government has a right to say whether something is or isn't miscegenation. I go by my own definition.

It would be nice to results of a poll of ALL residents of Mississippi with crosstabs for Republicans, Democrats, and Blacks. I honestly wonder if the results would be all that different.
