Why would anybody with a few brain cells to rub together want to get anywhere near Noo Yawk? It's full of rude, arrogant damyankees!
You are referring to NYC not the state. We just get hammered with all the BS that should not pertain to us. If you've never been north of NYC I can fully agree with you. Get to northern NY and you wouldn't think it shared the state with the sewer city.
Yup;... The major metropolitan areas rule the state. I can recall the last time Andrew Cuomo won the governor's race. IIRC there are 62 counties in the state and Cuomo lost 56 of them. Yet he still won the election by winning just 6 counties. NYC should be a separate state; it's been proposed in the past but never got anywhere. If I had my way, it would be a separate country.
I feel your pain. It's the same way here in Maryland.
I love Upstate NY. I went to school up there for a couple of years, plus I buy a lot of stone from up there. There's a lot of good folks and some beautiful country.
It's a shame that the commies are doubling down after the SC ruling. At least MD caved on their restrictive ways and now they're handing out CCW permits like candy. Still waiting for mine to come through, but I heard that they're so flooded with applications that they're not even calling your references if you have a clean record.
