I had the same experience in reverse. I spent time in Texas then came to Michigan. I heard more racist comments and 'those people' type comments in Michigan than I ever heard in TX. When people heard I was from Texas many would ask me to tell them a racist joke.

Now, I am no fool. I would agree that there are better odds that a lynch mob gets going in Texas over Michigan. However, as far as across the board general racism I literally could not tell you which state is worse. Northernors need to get off their high horse when it comes to this stuff.
