Default The Geography of Hate

Pretty cool map......Use the menu at the top to switch between "fag" and "homo", or "wetback" and "chink"

If by "pretty cool" you mean complete bullshit, then yeah. Zoom in on those massive red blobs in the mid-Atlantic and Southern regions and suddenly the red areas are few and far between, if you can even find them.

Something tells me if it had shown California as a hotbed for hate you would have checked that before spreading it around. And using the word "nigger" to show hate is a piss-poor measure by any standard.

Like I'm some "guardian angel" of California. I'm not from here, and I don't have much keeping me here, either.

And funny how many of those red dots are just small to mid-size towns, while huge cities in CA are usually blue. Name one word that turns LA or SF into a red dot. It never does.
