My father's family lived in Southern Louisiana since the 1700s; they came directly from France. So many South-bashers are totally unaware of the beauty and richness of Southern culture, getting their distorted views from the propaganda they see on their tv or movie screen. When they think of the South, they think of slavery and lynchings, thanks to our very biased media. And now Southerners are being equated with nazis. It makes me cringe the way the term nazi is being thrown around so recklessly these days.

These people have to know that the north had slavery, and that the vast majority of those in the South did not own slaves. Yet the stereotypes still persist. And now people from the south are.......nazis!! When will this nonsense and ignorance end?
