Ya want sympathy for the insurrectionists? GO TO FREDERICKSBURG! Pennsylvania is YANKEE TERRITORY. It's only true to what Gettysburg IS.

Apparently, you have not driven around Gettysburg much. The private citizens of Gettysburg fly the Confederate Battle flag in greater numbers than most rural southern counties. The citizenship of Gettysburg, ironically is very sympathetic - and quite "un-Yankee-like".

During the very days of the Gettysburg battle only a few miles north in York, PA over 15,000 people were meeting as representatives to a convention regarding the illegal war that Lincoln was waging.

Pennsylvanians fought valiantly at Gettysburg - but not because they were your type of Yankee.

Let me tell you something else, my wife moved to Atlanta in 96. She confessed that northern men are small sized. I said, what do you mean? She replied " about 4 inches". She maintains southern men are much bigger! True story. I guess that combined with the truckloads of money being made, is why we're getting all these good looking women down here from the north. Must be the weather.
