You obviously do not know shit about the South and get your impressions of people and places by what Hollywood tells you. Your ignorance is showing or do you think I was treated differently because I am too bad-ass for a redneck to cross my path?

I lived in Tennessee, and Florida... Where it's not Mississippi... I have to disagree.... Deliverance is real... There are people like that in all over the south.
I love how you can say one thing and everyone assumes it's "ALL" people you are talking about... no, just like everything... there are some extremists.
Maybe you have been fortunate enough NOT to experience this part of the south.... but don't think that because you have not lived it... it does not exist.
For example... I have been lost in Watts and South Central, on a blue motorcycle, red and white nike sneakers... back in the day where blue or red could get you killed.... remember those days in LA? I never had any trouble or issues... does that mean that those are safe areas where everyone is hospitable?
Next time in Tennessee, try going to some of the remote mountain communities. Mountain folk don't take to strangers too well.
What about "The West Memphis Three". 3 white teens arrested and tried for satanic ritual murders.... Very famous case... It seems, from the documentary, they were railroaded for being different. Just saying...
