not the “do not speak of politics, avoid conflict at all costs” attitude of the Upper Midwest, but a sense of “don’t tread on me and I won’t tread on you” as the golden rule. Those gun-shooting dudebros had nothing but disdain for the noisy, drunken group of college kids leaving beer cans by the river. Your opinions are your opinions, but making a mess for others crosses a line.
Again, to be clear, I have no sense of whether / how that changes if you’re Black.
