    Just carrying on the long long history of punishing the workers who dared take up arms to defend themselves a century ago.

    Unlikely to change any time soon. That punishment has included the above derision, plastered all over all forms of media for decades. As well as generational economic punishment. GovCo shat on Appalachia from such a height they’ve never yet recovered and likely never will. Look at the response to the devastation from that hurricane.

    Only people on this continent that got a worse hand are the indigenous and black folks in southern states.
