"Intelligence study links low I.Q. to prejudice, racism, Conservatism". Your view?

The study was undertaken by Dr. Gordon Todson, Brock University in Ontario (Canada I presume) and was published in "Psychological Science"  February 2, 2012 in an article written by Rebecca Searles.  Children who score low on I.Q. tests are more likely to develop prejudicial beliefs and socially Conservative  politics as adults.  They have a great resistance to change and like structure and order.

    Does that study say anything about the I.Q. of adults who take it upon themselves to spew hatred and vitriol over internet chat sites on a daily basis?
