Read "The Mind of the South" by W.J. Cash and get back to us.

What a tool.
They are the height of cultural poverty. They are perpetually obsessed with their neighbors business, and the only thing they appear to value is money and consumerism.
In the 17th century they constructed a humorless theocracy, and I the 21st century, they have inflicted a socialist theocracy on the rest of us.
They also have little to no sense of decorum. Manners, manners are lost them. Along with anything you could call social grace.
And I say that as someone who went to boarding school in New England, and has lived in their Puritan utopia.
There is admittedly a lot that I dislike about them. But I what I found the hardest was the loss of freedom.
There are things you can get used to.
That’s one you can’t.

The "right wing" people had a legal permit to hold their demonstration. The people there spread the gamut from just good ole baws who wanted to protect the statues to full fledged neo-Nazis.
At some point ANTIFA got wind, showed up with no permits looking to start trouble and the rest is history. Of course, all we hear is "so you want to protect Nazis?" My answer is "Yes." They have a right to hold their little rally just as any other group does. I am so sick of hearing the argument that we "can't protect Nazis." The hell we can't. If we can't protect their right to march, we can't protect ANTIFA's either.

The dem operatives and the media were waiting to run with it, it was a setup and they’re still trying to cash in on it.

I posted it the other day but the Lawrence, KS scene in Ride With the Devil perfectly encapsulates the Puritan ethos of Yankees. American culture is the Western equivalent of Sharia law. It isn't enough for people to live and let live. We all have to believe the same thing. Any deviation and your culture will be destroyed.

It started with Fort Sumter. Deal with it.

A lot of bums and a lot of racial tension. When you get out into the country outside of town it does get pretty nice.
The social tensions have gotten a lot worse with the influx of white transplants from places further north. They’ve pushed the black community out of their old neighborhoods, and things have gotten very difficult for the black residents as a consequence.
When you get pushed out, your whole social structure falls apart. You no longer have the neighbors who knew you, and looked out for you. Instead, you’ve got strangers.
Charlottesville has a gang problem now.
It was never like that before.
There’s a farmer just outside of town, he owns Sylvanaqua farms. He wrote a funny piece right around the time the statue thing blew up.
He said he was fed up with all the white women in yoga pants who called the cops on him when he was making home deliveries.
Chris is black.
He wrote, he wasn’t worried about the statues, or the people defending the them, because neither had ever hurt him. And he didn’t expect either to ever hurt him.
What worried him was those other people, white liberals, transplants. Because all takes is one misunderstanding, an officer pulls a gun, and his daughter loses her father.

I was back in Cville a couple of weeks ago. There’s a new Chase Bank on the corner, right across from UVa. It has this massive neon sign that glows 24/7.
And the old bookstore, is now a Sheetz.
It’s awful.

If only the Mayflower had sunk.
Absolutely though. And it gets back to that Puritan obsession with “driving out error.”
They just can’t let it go.

We've traded delightful Southern accents for Twitter speak and Valley Girl idiocy.
We've traded traditional Southern food at Mom and Pop joints for Panera and Chipotle.
The same damn Yankees who call Southerners racist are the one's forcing blacks off their property due to massive development and property tax increases.
But in America, the superficial problem is bigger than the institutional one, so a piece of cloth or stone is a bigger deal than Yankee gentrification.

No, he resents the fact that people that have no ties, no roots, and no history to his land have invaded it for lack of a better term. Precisely because of the fact that the policies that the invaders put in place caused them to flee in the first place to come to a state which is more conducive to a comfortable life.
Those cocksucking Yankees will bring their shitty politics to those states because they’re frankly too stupid to get out of their own way and believe that maybe this time their socialism bullshite will work in this state.
frick Yankees.

The woman who died, died of a heart attack.
That's the one thing the media refused to ever acknowledge.
She was not run over, she was not killed by a car. In the skirmish surrounding the car she keeled over and had a heart attack and died.

It’s kind of a common thread with liberal women.

ii) League of the South.
Neither of these groups have anything to do with the alt-right. The vast majority of them are either Pat Buchanan paleocons or Ron Paul libertarian types.
League of the South is JQ Woke and very friendly with "alt right types". Just a little FYI, TIFWIW.

Started out as a statue protest. Then a bunch of looney white dudes with tiki torches showed up chanting about Jews not diving them. Then Antifa showed up and started fights.
Only one group had a permit to protest that day. The police are to blame for not enforcing it.
