I believe the word cracker originated in Florida. It came from the cracking sound of the whip on horses back's as newcomers pushed into the land. Anybody who has read Marjorie Rawlings knows that.

But, of course, over the centuries it has lost its original meaning and is now a pejorative against white people.

This is going to be one sick trial.
