Confronting Nasty Stereotypes One Sign At A Time In Cordova, Alabama

Recovering from tornadoes that touched down in their city last month, residents of Cordova, Alabama are angry that Mayor Jack Scott has cited a local ordinance barring single wide mobile homes to be set up as temporary housing.

To show their displeasure with Scott’s trailer position--which some believe is rooted in economic discrimination--opponents have protested at public forums. As seen above, some have even brought along signs.

You would kinda hope that a CEO has the level of education required to press the 'spell-check' button. There again, you probably wouldn't given the state of the economy.

You'd "kinda" hope that someone who disdains regional colloquialisms would have the level of education to press the "spell-check" button himself. Zing!!

Kinda would be a contraction of 'kind of'. What's that, sorry, you'll have to speak up. I can hear you over the sound of you failing so bad. Go back to school redneck.

Sorry sparky, it's call a "misspelling". Perhaps you ought to enroll in some night classes. You'll begin to hear much better when you've pulled your head out of your third point of contact.

It's funny reading these smug comments from northern white trash......... you know, where in cities like Detroit 47% of the population can't even read, much less win a spelling bee.

Give it up. You've been exposed for the idiot you are. Calling someone a name after the fact just makes you out to be juvenile on top of dumb. The fact is that "kinda" is the exact same thing as "y'all"...they're both colloquialisms and non-standard contractions. So yeah, it was hilarious to see you rag on someone's grammar in total ignorance of your own less-than-pristine speech. Don't embarrass yourself further by throwing a tantrum like a two-year-old. Or do...we could all use a laugh.

Was I criticizing your girlfriend sweetheart? Did it get your panties in a wad that I pointed out to this ignorant snob that there is nothing at all wrong with using the expression "y'all" as you have so conveniently pointed out yourself? Do you have a special relationship with an idiot that thinks it's OK to call someone else an "inbred" for using a regional contraction but uses them himself? Are you an obtuse "idiot" yourself.... or just a hypocrite?
