Why is it acceptable for so many Yankees (many of course are notable talk-show and media types )* to leave the state governments (New York, Illinois, California, etc.) under which they voluntarily chose to live and among those of their own kind, and now move down to and among the very people whose ancestors they so often have chastised for leaving a place (Federal Union) that they had voluntarily joined in the first place. After all these Yankees-people volunteered to live in New York, etc., though God only knows why. Why can’t the federal (read “national” to them) government call today for volunteers under arms to stop such constitutional scholars as Sean Hannity et al from reducing so-called Blue States’ tax base and rupturing the constitutionally established union by leaving (seceding from?) their home state? Why can’t we send these same armed volunteers to arrest (we can’t shoot them, as their ancestors did to us) such traitors who are trying to destroy (via restructuring) the union (again, read “nation” to them)? Apparently, it is acceptable (Heavens to Murgatroyd, is it legal?) for a citizen to leave his state and move to another state, but it isn’t acceptable for a convening body of people (a state) to leave a union of states and form another union. These emigrants from Yankee land are the same self-righteous uninformed and uneducated rubes who have figuratively spit on the flags, the culture and the political estates and laws of the newly discovered states down South of which they now want to call home. And, I ask, in this new home, will you offer to pay for replacement monuments of our honorable soldiers of the Confederacy that you stood by and said nothing about when your blighted Yankee-socialistic brethren (and of course “sister-ens”) aided with and praised conduct when they were removed and/or destroyed? The reason most seem to offer for exiting is that they are overtaxed, over governed and forced to live under newly formed types of governance that are socialistic. And, by the way, they just can’t stand such a situation in their own home state. But they have violated their own state constitutions (such as they are) by electing communist mayors, senators etc. This of course is a result of their damnable social gods of so-called civil rights laws which include the madness of right to vote laws. But this is how these people function. Like termites they eat out the structure of their own home, then look for another meal, whether they be phony academic star gazers like Hillsdale College, or the Sean Hannity types of (he of icon, iconoclast synonymous brain-drain) fumbling, bumbling idle conservative wannabees. Jackson and Lee knew what these people were. The ancestors of these people and their imported socialistic ilk killed Jackson and made an old man of Lee and called him a traitor. And these people want to come down South. Fine, just don’t stop at Florida or Texas. Cuba’s just a bit farther. It’s a bit like New York, just a few more rats. You’ll love the place. But the bad news is: “You cannot leave,” their tax collectors must say to them. And the states receiving them should not want them any more than they wanted Sherman, Grant, Lincoln or any of the other “total war” malevolent beasts of the 19th Century. This monstrous bunch has been here before. Speaking for myself, I don’t welcome them back. These people coming will be singing The “National” Anthem, not the Star-Spangled Banner. And they will not only not sing Dixie they will also demand me and mine not sing it either. I welcome them with not only “Yankee go home” but with “Yankee go to hell!” Personally, I am not offering any Southern hospitality to them. I offer (speaking only for myself) only Southern hostility. I say go back home to the Yankee, national socialistic landfills you created. You cannot secede, you dumb Damn Yankees. Secession is illegal, you told us so! And you murdered thousands to prevent it. But I guess just another Yankee lie learned from old Honest Abe. *There is a multitude of such ilk and not just the one or two mentioned herein.

Southern Hospitality is for guests. Guests have the courtesy to leave. Our displacement is the final Reconstruction, the phase in which we stop being ourselves out of self-preservation. For all their failed, deliberate efforts, the thing that finally effortlessly breaks us is simply being themselves.

. Yankees don’t know the meaning of the word courtesy. They are the uninvited houseguest who will eat everything and then without saying even a “kiss my foot” they will leave and enter the next house.

I welcome them with not only “Yankee go home” but with “Yankee go to hell!”

I have often wondered if Yankees (in the narrow sense of that term) are really human, or they are just material beings without a soul?

Dr Wilson has stated before that Hillary Clinton is ‘museum quality’ example of a Yankee. I consider Donald Trump to be the same. They are both school yard bullies who like to order others around, and tell the rest of the world what they can and cannot do. You can bet your last dime that if Trump could channel himself back in time to have been president in Lincoln’s place that he would have invaded Dixie just as Lincoln did. He would have been quoted ‘Why would these Rebels want to leave our big, beautiful Union? They are going to regret this decision! Our great Generals, Sherman and Grant are going to hit these farmers with so much brutal force, they will be BEGGING me to let them back into our big beautiful union!’ Trump loves Abe Lincoln, and white Southerners (for the most part) grovel at his feet.

Yankeedom even affects those who criticize the Deep State.

Well done on pointing out the hypocrisy of the Yankees on secession.

As I recall, Stafford County (Virginia) offered 40,000 free 6ft by 4ft farms for the Yankees during the War of Northern Aggression. Deo Vindice!
