I didn't say for sure, I said probably. That is because true native Floridians have an embedded respect for Nature. They may be second or thrid generation transplants, but transplants just the same.

That's quite a generalization about true native Floridians, and might be the case for most, but I'm sure not for all. Don't know whether these idiots were true native Floridians or 2nd, 3rd or 10th generation transplants, but many folks from many states have an embedded respect for nature, and some have a warped sense whether they are true native Floridians or not.

Broad generalizations on all fronts here - and really, does it matter? I had a guy comment on a Facebook post I made today regarding a family that was struck by a car while crossing the road that "WI drivers know the law but IL drivers won't slow down". Um.. really? There was no indication where anyone was from in the article. And honestly if I'm hit by a car the last thing I'm going to think about is where the driver is from. And it wouldn't hurt any less if someone from my own state hit me. I doubt it made much difference to the shark, either.

True, it is a generalization, but no more out-of-step than Post #6.
