Both sides of my family come from Minnesota. Most of them still live there.

You don't tell those stubborn Germans and Swedes what to do. If you try, they may not say anything, but they will just dig in. I have always seen a sense of fairness on the part of my family and their neighbors. They do have some bad apples and ruthless people, but on the whole, those are not the norm. Don't mess with Minnesota.
