One in four country music fans believe in Segregation
According to a countryweekly.com poll.

Just go to forums and general banter.

It's times like this that I feel ashamed to be a country music fan.

2. The right wing stole country music
as a media to claim their victimization (as they see it)

5. A self-selected non-scientific poll
with a sample size of 24? That's pretty convincing.

6. Not to bash Country music fans but...
I have this feeling that segregation is becoming a mainstream issue again....maybe about 25-30% support it now.

There is probably some truth to that.
David Duke did not win the majority of the white vote in his governor race by accident. I would say that there is probably still high segragation support, especially in the south.

7. This really pisses me off
brettdale, I am also a country music fan but I am not ashamed, because the other three of us outnumber them.

So. between the two of us, who's the third one? :)

10. Right here!
I'm #3! I'm #3!

That does seem like a very shaky, very screwy poll.
