The Alabama transplant wasn't all that "Southern," she says, before moving to Seattle in 1998. But the minute she opened her mouth, releasing a soft, subtle Southern cadence, the response was like a slap in the face.

Soon after she arrived, a man on the street asked for directions. Politely she explained she was new in town (Reeves is a woman who always says ma'am and sir). Instantly and obscenely, the man cussed her out.

More times than she'd care to remember, she's been called a "foreigner" and asked, "What country are you from, anyway?"

Great to see how enlightened and tolerant liberal Seattle is. /sarcasm

Tolerant, peace-loving "liberals" strike again.

That is enough to make me sick.... What a complete and total disgrace of a person to do such a thing.

Probably an open minded liberal...
What a Travesty.

The sad part is the people who did this are probably completely ignorant about the Civil War.

I'm from Georgia. I was stationed as an Army recruiter up in Washington state. Lots of the "tolerant" folk there didn't like the fact that I was in the Army. Others asked me what country I was from as well. When I told one I was from Georgia, a state before Washington was even a territory, I was accused of being a racist. Ah, the "tolerance."

I've seen this cemetery. It isn't far from the cemetery that contains Bruce Lee and his son Brandon. Lee's grave has all sorts of issues too. Several years ago some one stole a 750 lb headstone.

Uber-tolerant Seattle shows its true colors again. Bastards.

Seattle should be ashamed of itself for a whole host of reasons, creating a climate of thought police is at the top. And this is the result. They probably think it's a good thing. Idiots.

The people who would do something this despicable must really hate America and Americans. Whatever the issues in 1860-61, that led to the separation, traditional America, both North and South had healed that division by early in the 20th Century. Those who have suddenly succeeded in stirring it up again, have no love for America.

On the eve of the birth of the noble Virginian, who did more than any other man to secure the independence of these States, it is a fit time to dedicate ourselves to identify and expose those mongers of hate, who have created a climate where this sort of cultural atrocity can take place. It is well to remember, also, that Robert E. Lee was the son of one of Washington's most celebrated Lieutenants.

Looks like the tolerant liberals in Washington read "1984" and took it seriously.

Disgraceful! Now I understand why eastern Washington wants to separate from western Washington. Seattle is occupied by the liberal Taliban. If an earthquake or tsunami ever hits that area, it will leave us with mixed emotions.

This disgraces all who had ancestors in the Civil War, mine fought for the Union but they would of been appalled by this. Whatever the reason people fought in that war, and the causes were varied on both sides, they should be shown respect. It was the common blood of American, North, South and black men along with white, that soaked the earth at the many battlefields of the Civil War. It is the honor of the brave which is insulted.

More of that Blue State love and tolerance they keep telling us about.
