Her DU name was Ava. She was 16 and such a bright point during the double aughts here. Alabama has its issues, but not everyone there is an asshole.

Think MRSA or gangrene

Until the good people of Alabama fight to control and eliminate the infection, it continues to harm not just itself but everyone else in the country.

Whether it's a little over half or a little under half will shape how Alabama is viewed by the rest of the world for years to come.

That he is even being considered by anyone as fit for public office, however, brings back memories of my native state during George Wallace's "Segregation Forever" years.

Why are you poor mouthing one state because of some idiots in the state?

Every state has plenty of idiots. Look who Montana elected. that thug who beat up the reporter. And there are plenty of other examples.

Sometime some of you guys make it hard for a southerner to stay here.
