I've since said that I've felt more comfortable down south than I've ever felt in western pa.

But, I have no doubt its true. I have been through town in western Pennsylvania where you get the same vibe. That sounds like something out of a bad movie. But, I have no doubt its true.

Offensive. This is about provoking reaction, not "heritage." I can't remember if I told you about driving back from the Maryland Eastern Shore a few years ago. A nice day at the beach was turned upside down as we took a rural road home and passed a big farm house with the curtains drawn and Confederate flags and slave auction posters festooning the walls inside. Silently, we were all thinking, "Please god, don't let the car break down here..." Hate and ignorance should not be elements of "heritage." Obnoxious. Offensive.
