In fact there are still a fair amount of southerns coming to my one horse town and vice-versa. We have some people trying to act southern even though they seem to have no roots there. My town (technically a city) isn't even in the southern half of Ohio.
Well you know... people say anything south of the Mason-Dixon line is a southern state. I grew up in Maryland. There are no southern accented people indigenous to there. No southern fried foods indigenous to the area. People don't have buggies in Maryland. They have shopping carts. And they have grocery bags instead of sacks. In fact, Maryland is drenched in Northern culture. Can't really say I believe that it's actually a southern state.
Maybe it was at one point, but somewhere along the way, the southern "roots" moved farther south.

Well, apparently a lot of people come here for our D-day reenactment, as you can't get from one end of the town to another when they do that. The D-Day reenactment would be nice to see. I did some roof work up around your area some years back. The accent seems to change a bit from the Southern and Central part of the State to the Northern part. Sounds close to a Michigan like accent in Northern Ohio. But I really enjoyed it up that way.
Yeah I actually do sound a little bit like someone from Michigan sometimes.

Just curious - how many monuments to other traitors who took up arms against the US are in Ohio?

Definitely.
When the Cavs won the championship, that was just awesome. I've been following them since the rebuilding days. That was one of the cool things about being from Ohio.

Boru There was a Confederate statue in an old civil war era cemetery for Confederate POWs on the westside of Columbus that was vandalized some weeks back. So I would imagine there could possibly be a few of them around. And as another poster pointed out some Southerners migrated North to look for work after the Civil War. And there's a lot of people here in the Central part of Ohio whose family roots are from the border states of Kentucky and West Virginia. My wife's side of the family, the Hatfields, fought for the South. My family's ancestry is from Kentucky. One of my great grandfathers served in the Union Army under General Sherman. I would imagine that the central and southern areas of Ohio, especially, has some Southern roots. I have family throughout the South in Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee, as well as in Kentucky. To many Southerners Confederate monuments are cultural icons to their roots and ancestry.

Too bad for the Bengals and the Browns. Neither of those two teams have won a game yet. The Bungles and the Clowns. I haven't been watching much pro ball lately though.

My mom graduated from Ohio State, she was a far better person than you can ever hope to be. Leave that school out of this, if you want to use a Don's Jon, go to Mara Lago.

What was the fucking point in posting the story that some Ohioans are just as fucking stupid as people in Alabama?
How does this fucking post prove Slavery is something to be glorified?
Take a deep breath, Brian. People can be friendly, sheesh.
Also, it's "l egit" not "l agit." Would you please turn your spell-checker on? That shit is driving me mental.

Ok. Are there any statues to say, Benedict Arnold or the Rosenbergs?
Quote:To many Southerners Confederate monuments are cultural icons to their roots and ancestry.
Ok, you understand that these are statues of people who tried to overthrow the US for the right to keep human chattels, correct? They are venerating statues of people who belonged to a foreign power that went to war against the US. How many statues of Nazi leaders are in Ohio? Is there a shrine to Tojo? Do you have a Mussolini Memorial Library?

A-Theist isn't being friendly, he started this thread because he is frustrated that we cant take a time machine back in time where he can keep his head in the sand.
Oh and FYI, I do try to use my spell checker, and I don't mind people pointing out my mistakes. But I do have ADD and even with the red lines, I always miss something. But believe me, I do try.
I am done verbally being nice to 45's supporters. 45 has use scapegoating vilification dangerous rhetoric for 5 years. That sick bullshit has embolden morons like A-Theist to make bullshit posts like this one. I can give you another summary of all the people and groups Covfefe has attacked if you like.
I'm sorry, there is no correct argument for keeping monuments up that glorify owning other human beings. Maybe A-Theist needs to tell 45 to shut the fuck up, instead of vilifying those whom are doing the right thing. But no, I don't owe A-Theist shit, anymore than the NFL players owes 45 shit.
