Re: What is the difference between the US North & South mentality?

Re: What is the difference between the US North & South mentality?

Re: What is the difference between the US North & South mentality?

LOL I've spent a fair amount of time in Florida. It's not all overrun with Latinos imo. Although I'd agree that lots of Florida isn't clasically "southern".

But sorry, every time I hear about...
