He should go put them on a cemetery full of Confederate soldiers and stir up a whole different kettle of fish!

Not many of those in MA...

Framingham was old-time Italian for many years. Then it added a sizable 'Rican and Brazilian population. The former is mostly gone now (dead or in jail), and the latter has risen to become a slightly conservative middle class.

There is also a recent influx of snobs who have ruined the town with their money and politics, removing the word "Christmas" from schools and replacing the guns on their historic toy-soldier statues with candy canes.

This boy's story is another fine example of what Framingham has become...

Don't forget about the Confederate POWs at Fort Warren, although that prison was not nearly as bad as the other Yankee facilities.
