Well y'all just need to go on and get yo Suthrun on, buddy...
I'll never get Yankees. Damned if I ever live up there. No offense but I like it hot and charming.
There is a stone cold truthful fact ... the pompous liberals of Minneapolis, Madison WI and Chicago are the racists, it's not the Southern White Boys. The South has racial harmony, white and black folks eat together, work together and live together. If a white guy uses the term "nigger", he's also helping his black neighbors in any way he can, without thought. He's spending Saturday bass fishing with his close friend Leon. A caucasian "progressive" here in tolerance land would sheyatt their pants if two black men entered an elevator with them. Black folk are totally isolated here. Most Minnesotans wouldn't know what to say to an African American if they were side by side on a 5 hour flight.
Anyway, had to get that off my chest, I was in Atlanta several weeks ago and watched the world work, and then saw the trepidation in a Minneapolis nightclub when 4 black guys entered the area.
So, that's my take. The South Gonna Do It Again.
