Boy Howdy!
Enter the king of never backing up a kernel of dumbfuckery opinionated BS ever.
What was the point about stating there is earlier mortality in the South?
I didn't say there was one. I have an opinion. It's unstudied and anecdotal. I think the food tastes great but is unhealthy. I think people smoke more tobacco.
I think in the deeper south it is extraordinarily hot too long and that deters sufficient exercise for average people. I think Republican policies which prefer austerity and guns to butter
policies contribute to less available availability of hospital care and doctors. Those I do not intend to support by hunting down facts. Just opinions because I have some experience there and elsewhere
with none of that.
If is was just to make a descriptive statement, then pointing out that mortality is higher among blacks and the South has a higher percentage of blacks than other regions just gives a more complete description. There is nothing racist about pointing out that fact unless a person claims a genetic predisposition or inferiority.
Your argument here seems to be a little knowledge is not a dangerous thing. If I say the sky is blue, and it is. You informing me that violet exists to give the overall impression actually misinforms. Follow me? So I disagree but I'll put a pin in it.
If a region has more blacks who have higher mortality, lower educational level, and higher crime rate, then it is only rational that the entire region would be higher in mortality and crime and lower in education because blacks bring down the average. If you look at education, for example, there is not much difference between each individual race in all the states. The factor that affects the education score of all students in a state is the percentage of minorities in each state.
Here I disagree primarily on the causation. You must tease them out and be more specific. Are the black people in the south having higher mortality, lower education and higher crime rates than your "control" Are the non black people in the south also having higher mortality, lower education and higher crime rates than your external control of non-blacks elsewhere? I could go on. Suspend debate on that for brevity.
But I suspect race was brought up because the original OP was not to just make a descriptive statement, but it was to further the bigoted agenda of some JPP posters suggesting Southern whites are somewhat less than human and inferior. Other posters brought up the race issue to counter the stupid and bigoted remarks about Southern whites by pointing out much of the mortality rate (and other demographics) is partly due to a large black population.
I'll respond to the first sentence by saying "duh" Some JPP posters do that because of the extremely disgusting bigots who are given succor in this shithole. Piling on black people is unthinkably disgusting and classless. Anyone who does that deserves anything they get in return.
Those same posters squealed for glee when the hurricanes and floods were drowning Southern crackers while it was primarily hitting large urban areas with large minority populations that voted Democratic. Their pretend disdain for racism is hypocrisy at its worst when they hate and denigrate any other group.
Yes, they did, and that is because being a pig against minority disadvantaged people is the most despicable and disgusting human behavior short of murder. Attacking the dominant is not comparable to attacking the subjugated. It's unspeakable and rampant here. If someone calls me a cracker, I'm not insulted, even though I'm white. It is simply different. What can we do to make assholes stop it?
HATE TRUTH?

You should be laughing at yourself. I attacked your theory and causation, (applicability of the fact) stupid. It appears you think a fact you pick = broad conclusion.
You think the census said black people cause higher mortality? It didn't. It says how many people live somewhere.
To get you to the end zone you need:
(black people die early because of their static genetics + there are disproportionately high black people in the south + everything else that could cause it is nullset= earlier mortality in south
all you've said are back people are there more than north and west....
All the OP said was earlier mortality in the south. That is true, what you said is just racist chum.

None of those gleeful squeals were limited to "...pigs against minority disadvantaged people..." but aimed at all Southern whites subject to the hurricane and flooding. Suggesting most Southerners fit that description is not only inaccurate but despicable and promoting hate just as bad as those promoting hate against minorities.
You don't get to have "good hate."
You know the South has air conditioned gyms, right? But yeah, too many are overweight.
I'm fucking useless and nobody wants to play with me..
I know they have them, but they need more of them and people need to be able to afford to use them and actually use them.
I don't think putting a CrossFit boutique in every rural hamlet is to the precise point, but I know placing an Arbys in each one isn't helping.
Do you admit southerners smoke more, each fattier foods and ride golf carts more than we do out west? It's not a dna thing, IMO.
and it's not a black thing. It's an affluence thing and lifestyle thing. I read the south is low on hospitals and doctors, more so than elsewhere.
So if you have a heart attack and you can't get help as fast, you are going to die
Try being more interesting? What am I saying, you are just a fucking lowlife.
Nope, it sure isn’t tied to the climate.
It’s tied to the response from one of your Southern idiots who stupidly referred to the North as “iglooland”.
I’m merely pointing out that where I live is more comfortable, year round, than many, if not most, places in the South. With a crime rate a fraction of all the places I cited.
Boise Metropolitan population is somewhere over 700,000. I can go to the philharmonic, first class concert or Broadway play or catch trout in the river within yards of each other. I can snow ski or sail and water ski within an hour from my house. Sun Valley is only a couple hours away. I can hike or bike in the miles of foothill trails or choose to use the 25 mile long path that follows the beautiful river. The Snake River Aquifer runs right under us, ensuring an ample water supply. Never have borrowed water from anybody. The Boise River, just a mile and a half from my house has plenty of water. For fishing and recreating.
Funny you should compare yourself to the Midwest. For climate, another massive shithole.
You mention Mountain Home, a town out in the middle of the fucking desert. They aren’t borrowing water from California, stupid fuck. They’re using it from the BOISE RIVER, right next door, which has an excess of water.
Stay where you are, pal. Tell your fellow ignorant Southerners to educate yourselves rather than post out of ignorance.

Happy Thanksgiving, domer!!!!
I hope you're as happy to be spending the day in your "comfortable" climate....

You don't get to speak for anyone but you.Why are we here?
At what? Golf? Obamacare? His 'Cash for Clunkers' program? At the economic disaster he called the 'New Normal'?1. America stunned the world by, in its wisdom, electing a black man president who appeared statesmanlike, skilled, smart and American, and he succeeded spectacularly.




Trump has accomplished most of what he promised in his campaign. What crime?2. That opened an opportunity for racist scum deplorables to elect a criminal clown incompetent demagogue populist liar gameshow host with endless baggage.
You don't get to speak for anyone but you.3. As everyone with a brain foresaw,
He's a successful real estate developer, he became President of the United States. You call that an 'idiot'???the orange idiot lived up to the hype,
No, that would be YOU. YOU are the only one making such divisions. Bigotry.dividing people between the smart and the dumb,
What crime?comiting brazen crimes and getting caught.
What prosecution? You must mean the persecution.4. His prosecution in the HOR was so complete,
so devastating and impossible to defend
Nah. Trump is well able to defend himself.that Republican morons are grasping at anything and everything they can to defend this moron,
No, that would be YOU. YOU are the idiots that keep bringing the 'Russian dossier'.including choosing Russian intel over our own.
It won't work, it cant work you have NOTHING.
What treason?Just vote for Trump, cement your identity to the traitor loser party and that's that.
Feeling especially violent today? Just remember...if you want to start a civil war, you could lose.It's funny. I laugh in your disgusting faces and wish you death.
Today is WEATHER, pal. Not climate.
Here is climate:

I looked up Orlando weather in July and August. 90 degrees and 90% humidity for at least two months straight. Miserable for even more. What is that heat index? 105? 110? Know what ot feels like when it’s 90 here? 90.
It rains half the month. You get 3 clear days. Do you fuckers EVER get to see the srars?

I can tell by a couple of things you've said on the subject that you've either never been to Florida or just don't understand how the weather down here "works."
Earlier, you said something about how when it drops into the 40's down here, it's wet, sloppy and miserable, which is total bullshit. When it gets that cool down here, it's almost always night time and the sky is crystal clear. Why? Because our cold weather comes in the form of cold fronts, which consist of a mass of cold, dry air that sweeps down from a northwesterly direction and pushes the warm, moist air and clouds ahead of it, out of its way. So our cold snaps are usually preceded by either warm, damp air with clouds and rain that sweeps across the state in one day, or just warm air and clouds. But it rarely if ever drops into the 40's during the daytime. That is almost exclusively a night time temperature.
And as far as the summer rain is concerned, as I also told you already, our summer rain comes in the form of thunderstorms, the frequency of which varies from year to year. Some years it seems we get them almost everyday, but most years, we get them three or four days a week with dry days in between. And the storms don't last all day. The mornings are sunny and hot, then by early to late afternoon the sky turns dark, the temperature drops about 20°, the wind picks up and then we get the downpour. An hour or two later, the sun is either back out again, or it's late enough in the afternoon it's beginning to set.
And this only lasts about 3 months.
For 8 or 9 months a year, it's like heaven down here.
Especially when the north is blanketed in snow and ice.
Like you all are now.
(BTW, it's 6:30 pm and I'm sitting here with shorts and a t-shirt on with the front door and a couple of windows open. Dry and comfortable.
