I am from Blackburn and I am PROUD!

[mcw]

To the very rude showjumper who made some horrendous comments towards my friend on Sunday. Not going to mention what you said about her although, wishing some one died of cancer (amongst other things) is going to far!

I am here to rant about your VERY STEREOTYPICAL view towards people who come from Blackburn!

Here goes:
Just because I am from Blackburn, doesn't mean I can't and won't get a job!
Just because I am from Blackburn does not mean I am a skank.
Just because I am from Blackburn doesn't mean I am dumb or stupid.
Just because I am from Blackburn doesn't mean I can't afford to look after my ponies properly.
Just because I am from Blackburn doesn't mean I live in a council house!

Get your facts right! My oldest sister is studying Bio Medical Science at Coventry University, she has a wonderful boyfriend and can afford to pay for her own flat! My other sister is studying Health and Social Care at St. Mary's College and as for myself! I have taken 4 of the hardest subjects for my GCSE's - one if which was media studies! Hence why I mentioned you being a very stereotypical individual! In the future I would love to run my own company in graphics, I recieved an A for my english exam last year and I gained a distinction in spanish AND french!

Hope you have read this and you have realised that:
I AM FROM BLACKBURN AND I AM PROUD!

It wasn't a famous showjumper, it's pretty unbelievable that they'd something like that isn't it? Sicko.
