Based on a good number of posters on this site, I'd say that LA is spot on.

Why is Alabama so good must be because of the Crimson Tide fans having fun on google

Reading most of the headlines from the major cities will give you a good clue for the reason of this perception.

I was actually just listening to a podcast the other day about how google relays information to its viewers, and it will actually tailor its results specifically to the user based on their preferences. (Note: Not prior history)

So these top google searches for one person, may not be the same for another. For instance, when I searched "Ohio," the first thing that came up was "Why is Ohio so boring." Now that wasn't what I was thinking but google has calculated their results to how they think I would best react to the answer. Also the timing of when you ask these questions is very important too.

Because a lot of blacks do not like white people. You see it a lot in the NOLA.

Mine says so poor for Louisiana?

As for the racist part, Louisiana has a higher % of black people than anywhere other than Mississippi.

Proximity breeds contempt.

It's pretty easy to be "non-racist" in places like Wisconsin or Minnesota because you won't see any black people if you stay out of about 3 meighborhoods in Mpls/St. Paul/Milwaukee.

and "racist" pretty much only means between black and white unless a lib can get cheap talking points out of some other kind

This reminds me of a guy I used to work for as a teenager. He was from Minnesota. Huge racist. He knew it, and made no attempt to hide it.

He told me one day, "I never knew how much I hated them until I moved to the South."

I think Alabama refers to the football team in that instance

Racist

for how "racist" LA is, i'd love to know what % of our babies born each year are of multi-racial parents and compare that to states like wisconsin, minnesota, etc
