My own editorial comment on this is from the perspective of a transplanted "northerner" to the south - otherwise known in these parts as a "damn Yankee" (i.e., one who moves to the south AND stays).

"Is it just me, or does the south in general have a big, big problem understanding the meaning and application of personal and professional ethics? I can't imagine something like this taking place in my former home - the clean government state of Wisconsin."
