I happen to know some Virginians that would not agree with you. Especially in the Richmond area. You must be from the part of Virginia bordering Washington....Very few Southerners there....mostly transplanted Yankees

Yup. I'm from the part of the Commonwealth that keeps the rest of it from being the economic equivalent of Mississippi.

I'd still be willing to bet YOU are not a native either....

Got that right. I'm proud to call myself a carpetbagger.

Now why am I not suprised.

Well you are entitled to your opinion, warped though it may be. Your words are rather insulting. Especially to the memory of the 60,000 or so Texans who bled defending the soil of Virginia. If you are so innocent as to think there are not many Virginians who would disagree with you, then by all means, keep your fantasy. As to your earlier remarks about "violent" Texans, well, keep in mind that Yankees NEVER conquered us. Texans did and don't take kindly to invaders.
