At one time, weren't we all called 'Yankees'? 

yeah...during the Revolutionary War, the British use is as a derogatory term to describe us and our soldiers.

We adopted the name and wore it with pride.

Just last month I was talking to a British friend and he was surprised to hear one of our Texas friends refer to us Northerners as Yankees.  He thought we all were Yankees.

I like to think we are all Yanks and proud of it...

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."

Throw that "O" word at em' again CR...... ;D

Either way, I'm glad folks in FL. are getting their CCW's in record numbers. Legally. The criminals that carry anyway, need to realize thinking twice, may lead to them living another day...

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

Those signs in foreign countries that used to read "Yankee go home" did not continue with "but everyone from South of NY can stay".

Believe it or don't.....my range has nearly doubled it's membership in the last year which means, since you need a license to belong to my club, we're doing pretty well up here too!  I don't know how many carry on a regular basis because we tend not to advertise the fact to the general bonehead on the street.
