I SEE WHY THESE IOWA DUDES ARE NOT WELCOME IN IOWA

I love nothing more than to stir up the libs. One of my favorite pastimes. These guise just make it too easy though. Like I said, Iowa isn’t sending their best.
Iowa is like a slightly less shittier Ohio.
The state has no redeeming qualities. I had to deal with f*rs from Cedar Rapids for work for years. Based on those interactions I’m convinced that all Iowans are retarded.
As I said in another thread, my trips to Cedar Rapids were some of the worst experiences of my life. Screw that place

Oh yeah, well I travelled to Greenville on vacation, and it was fun... so I'm not sure what my point is.
I too sympathize with the bigots
Not really challenging the contention that the schooling in SC is inferior with this response.
Uh, maybe. You’re making the assumption I went to school here so we can dissect the assumptive intellect there if you’d like.
Behind door #2, Iowa was an afterthought in the Civil War. Least as far as I know.
Doing some more assuming there. Clearly displaying your superior intellect.
Been on here like 25 years too.
This invasion of the deadbeats from the Iowa board is making the folks I disagree with that were regulars on here. I want to apologize to all of you folks as there are worse things in life other than your ideologies.
I have not used the ignore as much as I need to
My answer is just avoid this overrun site
The berserkers have made it a waste of money
If you’re from Iowa … ya … I could see why you enjoyed a vacation to Greenville.
Iowa provided 76,534 men to the Union Army - the highest percentage of eligible male population of any state in the North or South.
While primarily operating in the western theater, thousands of Iowans entered South Carolina during General William T. Sherman's "March to the Sea" in early 1865.
Iowa infantry regiments—notably the 2nd, 15th, 22nd, 24th, 28th, and 31st Iowa Volunteer Infantry—actively campaigned and fought across South Carolina, participating in the capture of Columbia and other engagements.
Iowa Casualties and Service in the South
- Total Iowa enlistments: 76,534 men, which represented a higher percentage of its eligible military population than any other state in the Union.
- Total casualties: Roughly 13,000 Iowans died during the war (about 17%), with two-thirds perishing from disease.
- South Carolina specific losses: Several Iowa regiments sustained casualties within South Carolina. For instance, the 28th Iowa Infantry recorded over 200 casualties during its deployment in South Carolina and North Carolina.
Perhaps the most notable "statistic" or artifact linking Iowa to South Carolina is the capture of a massive, pre-Confederate Palmetto flag.
- Soldiers from the 31st Iowa Infantry famously seized the 10- by 14-foot blue and white Palmetto flag from the South Carolina State Capitol in Columbia on February 17, 1865.
- The flag—originally used during South Carolina's secession convention—is currently housed in the collection of the
State Historical Society of Iowa
in Des Moines.

Seems you have learned a life lesson.
I never thought I’d say this, but almost miss the all asterisks posts from you … I could play mad libs, filling in the blanks.
However, I may have to start using “theirs’s” … I don’t know how or why … but I may try.

South Carolina has a higher percentage of LGBTQ+ adults than Iowa.
- South Carolina: 4.9% of the adult population identifies as LGBTQ+.
- Iowa: 4.7% of the adult population identifies as LGBTQ+.
Just like a battery, you know it's wrong but eventually you're going to put your tongue on it.
I love that this how arguments with old guys go. Civil war stats for internet clout 160 years later.
