Quite a few years ago I didn't realize how much I would miss black people until I took a road trip to Pennsylvania at 19.

At first you think, damn the grocery store is quiet... But then you realize they've been replaced by tweakers and heroin addicts.

And then you go to a fast food restaurant the cashier is white too. And she's a bitch. Who won't smile even if you make her laugh.

First place I stopped on the way home was a Jack in the box in maybe...Tennessee. This young black girl with braids said "what choo need?" All with a smile. Two weeks prior I would have thought she was rude.

Idaho was another odd place. Too many white people with ZERO flavor. I got a little drunk in a bar one night and scooped my gf up for a dance. You would have swore I had my dick out for the social faux pas I seemed to have committed.

Pennsylvania,

Here. Worked a short while in Bradford, PA a few years ago and saw a few. When I questioned one of the locals about it that I was working with, he replied "we don't like XXXXXX up here".

Was very surprised to hear that.

I have a hard time imagining that anybody outside the US has a CSA flag.

To each their own, I guess. Remember, however, that a decent number of ex-Confederates immigrated elsewhere after the Civil War, and not just to Brazil. A decent number of them went to Australia.

I went to a Military Day at Holsworthy Barracks outside of Sydney one year. They had some Australian reenactment groups dressed in Boer War, WWI, and WWII setups. Lo and behold, for some reason, there was a "camp" of a half dozen yankee and half dozen Confederates there. I talked to them for a bit, and they were just some Aussies who happen to find the ACW an interesting topic to study.

There is even an American Civil War Roundtable of Australia. I know there are ACW reenactment groups in Europe. Winston Churchill himself was a scholar of the ACW.

Redondo Beach CA in the mid '80's.

You know those big arse American flags that you see at least once near the freeway in every state? Martinsville Indiana has a unique take with a huge stars and bars flag. I've been told it's on a former grand wizard's property. Coincidently it's the only placed I've been pulled over for a BS reason. Had a damn hippie rear end me a month earlier and they pulled me over because the red plastic of my tail light was gone. Much bigger rednecks than the one encounter I had with a coop at State.

I see them in Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts with some frequency. Usually a sticker or license plate.

It’s amusing.

One of the earlier posters is right, at least in my experience: Northerners are much more racist.
