Ah reckon yew'd hafta go a fur piece jes t' fine yerself a native suthurner these days. We got us plenny o' yankees (northurners who come a-visitin') and plenny o' damn yankees (northurners who stay), so yew'd have to know th' premise's defnition o' "suthurner".

This 'ere nostrum that suthurners're more vilint, were it true, would hafta emit 'long genetic lines or 'long cultural lines, an' neither pathway be s'portible. Neither th' genetics nor th' culture is anywhars near so eye-so-lated as to allow fer any measurble diffurnce 'tween sutherners 'r northurners. Thar'd have to be some kine a-hard line 'tween th' two, whether yew go with genetic causality or cultural causality, an' thar ain't no such thang yew can point to.

Ah suspect this 'ere notion is jes like SamIAm said, it's apocr... acopryph.. apopic... it's horse-hockey, is whut it is. Sounds t'me like one o' them thar se'f-fo-fillin' predjadishes.

An' that's all ah gots t' say 'bout that.
