"Neil always wrote better when wrote about things he really understood unlike Ohio and _Southern Man_."

"Well I heard mister Young sing about her
Well, I heard ole Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don't need him around anyhow
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet Home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you"
Not all Southern men would agree with your assessment about Niel Young knowing what he was talking about when he wrote "Southern Man." A lot were offended by that song and Lynyrd Skynyrd went so far as to take a jab at Young in their song "Sweet Home Alabama" after "Southern Man" came out.

I am not sure you read my post correctly. I think Mr. Young was wrong in Ohio and Southern Man. Especially Ohio, the Kent State shootings were exactly what the young Marxists where after. The poor fools who got shot were simply expendable bodies for the cause.
