As the Amityville house said GET OUT!!!

Otto von Bismarck
If you study history you'll soon find that the majority of Jews couldn't move anywhere even if they wanted to. Those that could move quite often moved right back into the path of the Nazis. Moving was not really the solution. The solution, and the only solution, was resistance and help from allied nations.
You may not know NY State. It's really two states in one. Since big city populations outnumber rural populations we're unfortunately governed (at least in theory) by big city liberals. On the face of things that's the way it is in NY.
But all may not be as it seems. We in rural NY don't have much use for Albany. We tend to ignore Andy and his cronies to the full extent possible. Should Andy ever find out about the extent of the hostility toward him and begin to understand that his SAFE Act has been almost totally ignored, he might have reason to not venture too far from the cities. Andy's armies would have a rough time out here should push come to shove.
Wulfmann,

Very well put.
I am getting good at that ignoring thing.
But, I still don't understand why so many NYS residents voted to put the Arkansas Carpet Bagger in the US Senate.

Many of us are tied to a specific area by job or family; call it "voluntary servitude".

Like Cuomo, you can thank NY City sewer dwellers for that. [:(!]
I would LOVE to see a popular movement to divorce themselves from those big dirty cities and out of touch leaders like they have now. That would have them weedeling in their panties.
It will all be meaningless when the last english speaking working tax payer leaves a state that has sanctuary cities. Pull all fed funding from any state that has said cities, not just the cities but from the whole state, and imprison all law makers that back that crap.
Too many Americans have been killed or worse by that scum and their protectors.
There seems to be a realization on the part of the politicians that they are quite vulnerable- why else do you suppose they want to disarm anyone that has the slightest difference of viewpoint or opinion?
Well said Ray B.
Makes sense....
The rural population are hard working, middle income property owners. We own the land, earn the money and pay the taxes. Our percentage of the population is far below 50%.
The citidiots outnumber us, don't own the land, and don't pay property taxes. They spend our tax dollars and vote away our rights. Many, many people on Welfare, and lots of government employees to cater to them.
New York has tremendous manufacturing. BUT, it's getting hard to find people that want to work, then will pay the taxes, and then submit to the government.
We are swirling around the bowl, one whoosh and the likes of Spider, Guntech, Nord, Woodshed myself will be gone.
Wulfmann,

A lot of them fled to France thinking they were safe and then the Nazi's took over France. Then they were put on trains headed to the concentration camps.
This is New York State:

There a lot of welfare and "disability" up around here, too.
As for flushing....I am looking at about 7 years 'til pulling the handle.
I flushed the state of New York back in 1996 and have not regretted a minute of it. Moved to the tax free, gun loving state of Florida. More bikini babes per mile than any other eastern state. [:D]
I don't trust you....send bikini pics to prove it.

Yep, they fled after they were disarmed by the state.
The disease is similar to what most states have: A large metropolitan area that wields the political power, thus implementing laws and election results for only a small percentage of the geographical area of the state. New York differs only in the severity and magnitude of the rules. New York has New York City; but Illinois has Chicago, Colorado has Denver (and Boulder); California has LA & SF metro areas; Oregon has Portland, Washington has Seattle, and on and on.

Most of my extended family members were business types that grew up in rural NE states, NY, CT, and MA. All fled to TX and FL many years ago as state and local taxes consumed most of their earnings. All have prospered since.
I have been to or stayed in many large cities for short periods of time controlled by Democrat supermajorities to see the damage inflicted both economically as well as culturally.
Most of the successful business people flee to the suburbs and beyond taking jobs as well as wealth with them. What remains in the metro area can be described as a crime ridden, welfare abyss that eventually will self destruct.
I will never understand why these city people continue to vote for socialist party candidates who keep them in abject poverty and despair.

Politically, the cities are the major problem.
Rural NY is bad economically, as well. Manufacturing is moving south and the former employees are leeching off the system. You would not believe (or perhaps you would) the amount of welfare dependent folks up here.
I got pulled over by the NY states for bad running lights. In my door panel was a fully loaded 40 cal. Glock with 2 high cap mags. [8D]. He was nice and just asked me to run with my 4 ways on until I was able to get to my exit.
I just traveled through your state last week, some may have seen the photo I posted going across lake Champlain on a ferry.

I'm guessing he did not see the gun?

Nope, he had no reason to search my car. If he would have he would of also found my .270 and my 12 gauge.

Might be easier on the eyes than some of these chunky native chicks, but the worst are snowbirds. You ain't seen nothing till you've saw a pale white 250 lb avalanche of flesh in a string. (at least you hope it's wearing a string)

Hey, whatever floats your boat, but his post says "More bikini babes per mile than any other eastern state. [:D]".
You can project your tastes in there if you want.

Those would have been fine......the handgun would have caused you a lot of pain.
I'm glad you got over on them. [;)]

Shouldn't people like you be locked up someplace? [;)] [:D]
It is not and at some point you will drown.
the Jewish comparison was general as many Jews came to the US and other countries but the point is some saw the reality and got out while it was popular to believe this danger would pass and things would get better.
NY getting better for gun owners is about as good as it was for Jews in Germany.
The main difference is you are welcome in those many pro-gun states where your presence strengthens the 2A as compared to being underground at best in NY
Your state ist gesunken, kaput, finished, wake up and smell the coffee and join those who want you.
You will not take back NY.
Stop the delusion and pack your bags
We need gun owners concentrated to insure the rest of the states do not fall like NY and other states, otherwise we are all kaput

Be careful.
Nord and others I am well aware of the difference between up state and da city but you are under the impression the Titanic is unsinkable.

Easy to say...not so easy to do.
I am 55 and only a few years away from retiring a second time, for good. I can't just up and leave.
I know (and knew) that I should have stayed in Georgia in 1998.
It should be your highest priority (after health)
I understand people can't just run to their car and flee but even on the Titanic there was time to take stock and retrieve what was important.
New York is the Titanic for gun owners and in fact anyone not part of the sheep or elite. If you can't get out soon you should be planning your move to freedom

You wanna bet? If someone showed you one of these ovens that you were going to be burned in if you didn't find a way out how long do you think it would take you to get out of town?
