I grew up about in central NY (about 40 miles southeast of Syracuse) - great people up there (and beautiful countryside)! I ended up moving to Long Island for career opportunities, but even with the ocean, it can never compare with upstate. Believe it or not, there are a lot of gun owners down here & we’re all equally enraged over this legislation. But it doesn’t appear they’re even going to hold a “Q & A” session down here, because as downstate gun owners, we’re completely invisible & totally outnumbered by the sheep. Oh well, we’ll just have to keep traveling up to Albany for the protests.
Trapped, I’m down here on the Island, too, and I can concur that people here are LIVID over this. I don’t think anybody outside the area knows just how many gun owners live on Long Island.
When I found out that my state Senator voted for this, I was so furious I could have spit.
Regards,
