I have to say the only time I did anything like this was when I heard one too many Yankees complaining about how "life was better up North" and "people in the South are backwards/ignorant/racist/troglodytes/regressive".

To paraphrase Chris Rock, I'm not saying that the treatment ya'll got was right... I'm just saying I understand.
