   Lesson in the English language and quantifier propositional logic:   
      
   If ALL white southerners were ignorant, it would only be necessary for me   
   to say "white southerners" instead of qualifying it as "ignorant white   
   southerners." To people who have made it past high school, the phrase   
   "ignorant white southerners" is more likely to refer----where ambiguity   
   of interpretation is possible-----to that subset of white southerners who   
   are ignorant, and that there are white southerners who are, in fact, not   
   ignorant.   
      
    You have just shown what an ignorant bigot you are.   
      
   You have certainly shown that you are at least ignorant, and quite   
   possibly stupid.   
      
   Say something more, and then we can fill out that description of you more   
   adequately.
