Small town and small mind

Last night I had my first true encounter with small minded, small town, ignorance...

Ok so here is what happened: This kid who I have had no problems with before was drunk one evening and ended up making a comment that the reason why so and so was stupid was because he was Jewish. I gave him a look and was like, "excuse me". "Oh no you're cool Libby, but all other Jews I've met are just stupid." So then he proceeded to tell everyone in the room (who were all appalled how stupid he was) that because he grew up in a small town and never met a Jewish person or Black person before he came to IU he had the right to not like them. And "when I'm done with these 4 years of being here, I'm moving back to (that small town) and getting married". So, basically, this kid is incredibly stupid and it just makes me sad that he doesn't understand that his words hurt others and his views are wrong. I really hate small town, small minded people.
