For the most part it's pretty much true, there are cultural aspects those states share like the ones mentioned by Marik. The border states like Kentucky, Tennessee are still southern in their traditions. And not all the traditions have to do with racism, Turt. Mulitgenerational.

Only the culturally inept still think the South is racist. The south is about as racist as the north in 2014, which is not very. I'd make the argument that racism in the South carries an even bigger taboo than in the North [i]because[/i] of the dark history it had in regards to slavery and Jim Crow.
