Reply #177: Get the Southern people out side with every one else and they are [View All]

just about the same as every one else. I swear that they need company to act so bad. It is like a mob. One does not move into a mob and think nothing is going to happen to you if you are not with them. I Once had a maid tell me to not call her Mrs. something, as we always did in the North, as the lady of the house wanted every one to call her by her first name. The Master gets to say I guess. I knew Black people in the South that had two says of speaking. Like a regular person and like some stupid person. It was who he was talking to, so the Masters win with the people they keep down. Or maybe it was the other way around. It does take both sides of this to a level one hates to see. As you see I made a bad person to live in the South at that time. I do not know if it is still like that.I have seen Southern people in groups out side the South that still act the same but alone they are like every one else. Groups makes one brave I guess. Or they feel they must act like that. I just do not understand it.
