However, you have to keep in mind that upstate NY(a much larger area of land than south NY) is mostly gun totin redneck types just like down here. Not all of NY is evil in this sense.

I've had a few friends from upstate NY. They could hold their own with a southern boy all day long. I made 'em prove it, and they did. On the mat and at the range.

It's a shame that everyone seems to equate all of the upper colonial states with NYC and Boston. Even Massachusetts has some excellent country folks.

New Hampshire? Fohgettaboutit! Live Free or Die! If those people had long enough legs, they'd have been in Texas a long time ago.

I read articles like that nearly every day.

I wish I could afford a new gun every time I read one. But then I'd have to buy a larger home for a much larger safe (or three).

Let the idiots vent. Until they learn to band together, as members of NRA (and other gun rights organizations) have, they'll continue to be clueless and wonder how a few wealthy lobbyists can hold so much political power.

It's very hard to refrain from telling these people that the NRA represents 4-million+ votes. Let them figure it out on their own.
