I stopped at a redneck gas station in Orange, TX to piss and my friend gave me money to buy her cigarettes. The guy behind the counter looked at my ID and his face dropped. He said he didn't like my last name because it sounded Jewish. He looked like he wanted to kill me, so I grabbed my id out of his hand and hauled arse to my car. Learned later that Orange is a hotbed for KKK activity.

Yeah it gets pretty bad in the Orange-Vidor area. Still hear about how it's still considered a sun-down town. Meaning you don't want to be alone there at night if you're not white. I remember a story that was really wild a few years back about a black guy who was tied to the back of a truck and drug a couple miles down a dirt road until he died by the KKK
