No big deal?
I would guess that most people would look at it and think if funny, a "crusty Yankee" opinion. I doubt many would be seriously offended by it and if they are, maybe they should lighten up.
I absolutely agree with the sentiment of the financial help that the area receives and I have no resentment for tourists even though I find them funny at time, uppity at times, and annoying at times. Hmmm, that applies to locals as well.
I have no real interest in telling others how to express their opinion or express their sense of humor and I don't want others to be bugging me about my preferences either. Sometimes people go WAY over the line and a word to the wise may be needed but mostly I figure people are adult enough to deal with an imperfect world and the imperfect people that live in it.
