Well done Brad,

What is the purpose of this stupid Brit TV show anyway?
Or is it the Benny Hill show returns?

TDS

 

The show is actually excellent - usually.
For example:

(Clarkson owns a Ford GT)

That stupid hick town bit made me angry too, but I suppose to some it would be a hoot.

Exactly what border was Clarkson running for? South Georgia, Florida Panhandle, Mississipi? HA!

I could ellicit a similar response using a tailored approach from any geographical area having uneducated and/or very poor residents.

I'm sure I could start a riot at a soccer match in England if I knew what to say. And, I've briefly lived in California and there are plenty of rednecks there too.

You have to admit that the response time of the goons was impressive though.

The Top Gear guys are out to push buttons and this time they pushed ours. Oh well.

 

I wish they would have left those slogans on their cars while driving in
Louisiana, I do believe they would have been shot going through there. I am sure that whole thing was staged. I got a good laugh out of most of it.

 

those people were poor white trash ... thats a dif class than a true red neck.. true red necks would have strung them up in the nearest tree .. poor white trash will stay on the poarch and just bark a lot.... you know red necks will go to wallmart .. but new clothes and put them on and wear them on the spot ... poor white trash are the ones going thru the dumpsters behind the store looking for what the red neck threw away

 

one must remember that these visitors are from the same country where people stampeed and kill each other by the dozens at soccer ( football to them ) games ... and they want to call us " uncivilized "
