Scrapple rocks! I did not know what scrapple was until I was 15...and kept eating it anyway.

Slice it up, coat it in flour and fry it in a pan of bacon grease!

The south is not a place for the author of that artlcle...northern cities are more likely to pamper to her every need.

The only thing great about living in New York is that you get a real understanding of how screwed up a state can be and how great life is when you finally get the hell out of there. It's just so liberating not having to deal with all that left wing crap that's constantly rammed down your throat. You're so outnumbered and there's not a ****'n thing that you can do about it. There's nothing like the taste of freedom and having that tremendous burden lifted off of your shoulders. My only regret about Arizona is not having been born and raised here. My wife and I are proud of our adopted state and proud to call it home.

The other day when I had to go downtown there were some people on the corner waving "Let's Go Brandon" banners and American flags. People were driving by giving them a thumbs up and honking their horns in support. During the "summer of love" riots word got out that BLM was planning on bussing in hundreds of protestors to invade our downtown. Hundreds of us took up arms and went there to let them know that under no uncertain terms were they going burn, loot, vandalize and destroy the place. We cooperated, met with and supported law enforcement that was also present. It was obvious that they appreciated us being there as they would have been vastly outnumbered by the number of potential rioters that showed up.

About a hundred or so protestors showed up shouting their stupid little slogans and waving their stupid little banners. We stood on one side of the street and in front of the local businesses. At the end of the day not one business, private property or vehicle was burned or vandalized. There was not one piece of litter left behind or graffiti either.

Yeah, when folks move to Phoenix and are still complaining after a year....they tend to go back where they came from.

Except the California whiners. They move to Seattle or Portland.

South Carolina seems nice.

You have an attitude that I would welcome! And.... true story here.... We have Sunday Liquor laws.... no Sunday sales in our county. So I am standing in line at the grocery store behind a lady who puts a 12 of beer on the grocery belt. The cashier ringing her up says "I'm sorry maam, we cannot sell that to you on a Sunday... we don't allows Sunday alcohol sales." The lady says.... I kid you not.... "It's okay... you can sell me that... I have my driver's license here... I'm from N.Y..... and WE can buy on Sunday." And then got pissy when the cashier insured her she could not. Sometimes you just got to laugh at the entitlement by some people just because of where they live.......

My favorite part of the article is when she casually admits she wouldn't mind transporting marijuana over state lines, if only the neighboring states had legal cannabis.

Now I could go for that kind of vegan. Deep fried battered green peppers, mushrooms, onion rings.

I couldn’t help but wonder when reading the article why on earth she moved down here to begin with? What did she expect? She claimed to be a left wing vegan and she thought the south was a good place for her? This could have been a plot to a comedy movie.
