gobbagool posted:The mail order ammo ban is the big thing, and the overnight criminalization of ~1 million or so otherwise law abiding citizens is the other. If you're not a formerly law abiding citizen who didn't want to turn your rifle over to Prince Andrew, it's probably hard for you to grasp why this would piss people off so bad. Guns are for pussies and your "UPSTATE RULEZ DOWNSTATE DROOLZ" shtick is really bad.

Tweezer Reprise posted:the only good part about upstate is all the wilderness stuff you can do in the summer. in the winter it is dark and sad My FIL has a bunch of land near Albany. It's really nice to go up and visit and not hear cars honking and go on a hike in the woods and smoke some weed. I know there are some serious economically stressed areas up there that need a lot of help and I'm all for it, but as someone who grew up in the densely packed areas of along Island and living in Queens now, the change of scenery is nice. The universal truth is our politicians are pretty bad.
