Correct. And most of them are law abiding citizens, the salt of the earth. But in a few months they will be jail bait. I don't think in the end it will end well for anybody in NY.like some college towns. The upstate people have suffered for years under the lash of the tyrants in the cities and in some places on Long Island who they think of them and treat them as ignorant yokels, merely to be scorned and ruled by their betters.
Most of the upstate is quite conservative, with the exception of a the big cities and a few Liberal enclaves in college towns. Cuomo, Bloomberg. DeBlasio, and Schumer are perfect examples of what these Nazis are like which inhabit these pest holes.
Too right, mate! I get the same thing because I am forced to live in Cali, and have gobstruck gibbering idiots go on about "Kalifornia" and "KaliPORNia", as if the bent wankers in SF, LA, and Berkeley somehow define us true patriots by their liberal shoutspeech.
No bloody way I endorse any of that, and just because I have to live in this state does not mean I am therefore not doing anything in My power to circumvent those elite liberal socialist snobs!
There used to be a check and balance to this power. Some states had real Senates where Senators represented geographical areas rather than gerrymandered population groups. This gave rural voters a measure of power to prevent cities from riding roughshod over them.
In the 70’s, as I recall, the Supreme Court ruled that such arrangements were “unconstitutional” even though they mirror the structure of the Federal government, and required states to change their constitutions to require representation by population, the so called, one man, one vote, rule.
That is a major reason that cities have such enormous power inside of States.
I recall telling a “liberal” colleague about this. He said, “Oh No!” You have it backwards! the counties would not let the cities enact needed legislation! They were holding them back!
Sixties. Look up Reynolds v. Sims and Baker v. Carr.
I just read about the decision. All based on insane twisting of wording, as though a “republican” government meant a pure democracy. The disasters that the Roosevelt revolution in the courts caused this country just keep on. Everything that was predicted to happen, happened. I have to believe there is justice in an afterlife, because those Supreme Court justices certainly deserved enormous punishment for their corruption.
Wouldn’t it be interesting if the upstaters (where the hunters and rural folk live) resist and take it to the city morons.
I’ve always read that the best places to bury guns in in graveyards and junk yards. I know the location of several former public dumps.
Then I’ve heard you could bury your guns, then sow the ground with nails and other bits of metal. The best metal I’ve found is old fence wire, slugs punched out from iron,
I’ve got a place where lots of old nail infested lumber was burned. It is almost two inches thick with rusted bent nails, all under the sod.
Not as good. Here's why: They won't have an explanation for the signature and will therefore have to investigate. Give them something to find that is cause for blowing it off.
Arch...Stanton!
Un-k, un-k, dere’s no name on it!
*** and will therefore have to investigate.***
Let them investigate! Tons of old nails, buried old fence wire, 100 years of accumulated junk, cast iron plumbing, broken plow points, private garbage dump(no longer used) over a 15 acre patch of land. That is a lot of investigating they will have to do!
That works. Didn’t know the scale.
New Yorkers, just hide your guns, problem solved.
Every geezer with a metal detector knows you check the hole after you dig something out.
