Actually, this is an excerpt from a much longer blog post, much of which is somewhat more commendatory towards Knoxville.
However, this individual is very short-sighted. He wanted to see poverty and ruin and well, of course he saw it. He doesn't even seem to be clear on the definition of redneck.
"Relatively unknown city?" I follow blogs from all over. People know Knoxville.
Dude, poverty is everywhere. All it means is that we are a capitalistic society where people exercise free will. Watch a couple of episodes of "Hoarders." Living like this is not always symptomatic of income level.
Funny he didn't mention (even in the blog) anything about the mission district where the homeless are, despite concentrating his trip in the downtown area.
Am I the only person bothered by the misspelling of "half-raized"? I was educated in Knox County and raised WAY out in the county.
