Gato_Solo said:Cock fighting, I believe, is legal in Mexico. I've been to panama, and it's legal there, for sure. I've been to Spain, and watched bull fights. What it boils down to is this...Eurocentric thinking. Remember that protestor that got gored by the bull she was trying to 'protect' a few years back?
Gonz said:You were no more invaded than Gato was a slave.
SouthernN'Proud said:Anytime you're ready, Gonz. Any time.
The practice of hating the South predates the Declaration of Independence. If you want to blame it on a cockfight, I hear they're taking new residents in Oakland. It has permeated the media, the textbooks, and the legislation for 350 years, longer than any chicken lives anywhere.

2minkey said:kind of a digression, but wasn't tennessee on of the earlier states to be "redeemed" after the war?
so, i'm curious, what are the signs and symbols of the invaders? (i'd imagine you might say strip malls and other things that may be owned by yanquis..?)
Gonz said:Bred & born in Arizona. When most of the license plates are from outside the state I know the feeling but isn't the same. Snowbird Central...Will the last person out of Michgan please, turn off the lights...etc
SouthernN'Proud said:Tennesse was the last state to secede and the first to apply for readmission. Meaning...nothing.
You'd imagine wrong.
SouthernN'Proud said:haven't been to Atlanta in 30 years or so.
Gonz said:It's not what it once was. For that matter, not much is.
