To the “Ohio” Yankee:
I don’t know WHO you are, but I certainly know WHAT you are.
My ancestors were not traitors. Not in a technical sense or otherwise. The history I was taught, says that Southerners had a different idea of what citizenship was, prior to the “late unpleasantness”. My forebearers, as well as Robert E. Lee and others were loyal to their homes. They would have been a traitor, to turn against their own people.
You should really watch your “phraesology” when you are talking about Southerners. People I know have been apt to “open a can of whup*ss” for MUCH less.
Great response to LS!
