Sir, I take great offence to that! LOL!

Hey, the northern portion of our great Commonwealth may not be much of the heart of Dixie anymore, but by golly it is still the start of Dixie. And, don't y'all forget what a formidable fighting force the Army of Northern Virginia was.

Haha, good to see another NOVA Rebel out there. Part of a dying breed brotha. Kind of off topic but I hate when people (my ignernt freinds) say that Virginia is not a Southern state. I always reassure them that the Capitol of the Confederacy was in Richmond but they don't seem to understand. The only people that believe Va is not a Southern State are most of the Northern Virginians, anywhere else in the state believes otherwise.

Actually, MD is technically a southern state as well, since the M-D Line is the border between MD and PA. MD was only prevented from seceding by a certain president arresting certain state legislators for not voting his way...

And thus, technically, Washington is also a southern city.

But it's all just geography.

BTW, +1 on the Marine Mafia.

Tomahawk beat me to it. Maryland was a rebel state, in spirit. But the Federales put the strangle hold on them before the SHTF so to speak. Lincoln wasn't big on the idea of DC being surrounded by rebel states :shock:

I must have missed something the Marine Mafia seems to have grown. But I guess Tony's 7 will always remain 7.
