I'm sorry, but that excuse is VERY weak IMO.
Being a "jerk" and saying things in a condescending manner is not something that a region of people are inherently pre-disposed to. That to me, is ludicrous!
If it were so, I'd be at odds with you and Halifax... but I'm not, nor have I ever been. I wonder why?
What you mention between you and Dave happens because the two of you are close friends. This type of interaction is not reserved as unique for your region -- it's something that occurs everywhere between close friends.
You, admittedly pointed out that he's at the centre of most disputes... I wonder why that is?
I don't want to push this any further though, but I just really wanted to point out the flaw with the argument that the attitude is somehow related to the region of residence. I understand that you are his good friend, and I commend you on standing by him.
But if the argument were true, our community here would have seen a similar personality coming from you.
