Anonymous Coward User ID: 773494 United States 09/22/2010 10:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You have yet to experience the fascinating horror of a family reunion in the deep south. What happens is that for some reason, certain types of people don't move far from the house they grew up in. So after a couple hundred years, you are surrounded by your own family and you end up marrying a distant cousin. Then those recessive genes start piling up and . . . voila! Halfwits with pinched faces and other tardlike features. Quoting: CatseyeDon't you know it. The citizens of the little town I work in (Georgia) are all related. It's bizarre. It's like that old Earnest Scared Stupid movie where an ancestor was cursed and every subsequent generation was to become "stupider and stupider and stupider." Man, these kids are lucky to have an 80 IQ...it's pitiful. |

jeffrobodine User ID: 45805384 United States 08/26/2013 05:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | the remote mountainous and other areas of the south were inhabited along time ago--in isolation and lack of fast transportation and with few possible mates to choose from within a few miles inbreeding occured and got worse as time went on. many lived out thier lives close to home with 50 miles being quite a distance--and also no reason to do it to begin with. people associate inbreeding with incest within the family such as a father abusing his daughters. in fact after about 150 years it would be almost impossible for people to find a wife that was not related even though they likely didnt know it. They wouldnt know--nor would they care being farming and hunting people not genetic scientists. deformities can be unusual or take generations to pop up. a mountain boy would know it was not right to abuse his sister--however when he eventually took a wife--it would be virtually impossible that peggy sue 6 miles up the trail on woverton mountain--was likely a cousin. they might have a wonderful family--but then funny things could happen as thier kids had kids--up pops autism or other deformities physical and or mental. They also were a tough people with no law enforcment or any type of rules within 100 miles--so they did as they pleased.. If billy starts courting peggy sue--there would be no deep analyzes of bloodlines or family history--family history long forgotten or kept secret. |

Halfwits with pinched faces and other tardlike features. Quoting: Catseye This right here is the absolute truth. It is quite common to see a trailer in the back or front yard, sometimes a small gravel road is added and there are two or three trailers on the property. That would be the children, grandma or a cousin/aunt ect. You travel down a road a few miles and it may be populated by only 2-5 family names. Not much in the ways of genetic diversity. It is mostly first and second cousins but it is inbreeding none the less. |

The worst part is, the older families (the worst of the genetically challenged), are the ones who know everyone and these jokers get into positions of power like city manager, mayor, police chief, sheriff, etc. |
