If you value your life and you're freedom time to beat a path out of the people's republic of New York.

too bad those states aren't all together in a bunch, we could just make a new border and give them their own country to screw up.

That is one way to look at it. What I see is polar opposites becoming more and more polar. Hopefully we can keep VA on the right track.

That'd just make them "undocumented" as they cross the border to continue undermining the Constitution.

All they're doing is making me go SOUTH for my vacations...

I won't go to CT, CO, IL, MD, NY, NJ, CA, or D.C. anymore if I can absolutely help it. I'm sure they won't miss one man's money. I wonder what would happen if ALL their gun owners, and people who own guns avoided them.

It's be the MLK Bus Boycott... except with a buncha old white guys, and guns. :hysterical:

So which one is it? Do the people that value freedom leave or do the parasites leave? I'd say a little of both, but I'd question why the parasites would leave since they already have their progressive utopia.

My family moved to Va from upstate NY 20-something years ago to escape cold weather and high taxes and there's NO way we want to reproduce those conditions down here. I now see all of the other things that NY stands for and there's no way I'd move back and even don't like going there to see family.

Sure we've all heard stories of people leaving progressive utopias and changing their new stomping grounds, but if everyone walked away as soon as they heard a northeast accent then there's no one to tell those people how things are done 'round these parts and they're left to themselves to start creating a new progressive utopia. I would remind those people that they left those places for a reason and not to do anything that would duplicate the horrible conditions they left.

Colorado is your classic example of the progressive movement into an otherwise conservative state. They didn't move there to leave California or NYs ways they went for the skiing and mountains and then decided the political landscape needed to be changed to adapt to them instead of the other way around. It happening all over and if conservatives/constitutionalist don't get politically active to fight back they will eventually have it all.

I am glad I am on the way out instead of on the way in. I am 66 and have witnessed the best this Country will ever have to offer. I feel sorry for my grandchildren who will not grow up in the same America I did. Getting way too liberal for me, or socialist, or whatever term you choose to use

We are in a downward spiral just like a snowball headed to hell. The ABSOLUTE worst thing that has happened to this Country is numbnuts in the White House.
And the idiots in this Country put him there TWICE!

God bless whatever Republicans/Conservatives we have left and all the pro-gun folks around.

I've been fighting most of my adult life to keep New York from becoming what it became. We are looking at moving to Virginia not to turn it into what we left but to help keep it from the same fate.

Virginia still has a chance, New York is lost.

I've been out of work for a while, and all the jobs in my field that are opening in this "robust recovery" of King Obama's are in NYC and Chicago. But I'll be damned if I'll move to either. I have a PhD but I'd rather work retail for 1/10 my former salary than move somewhere that the deck's stacked in favor of the bad guys.

The die was cast for NY before you or I were born. At this point trying to do anything for NY would be painting a building that burned down 50 years ago to spruce it up.

No point.

VA is a really cool state, unfortunately it seems NOVA dominates it like the metro area did NY though.

I would say that the die was cast for New York before our parents were born. When the Supreme Court ruled that state senates' couldn't mirror the US senate and had to be based on population density it was the beginning of the end. That's why New York (until last year) had 62 senators.

The next Virginia gubernatorial election may decide whether VA is our escape destination. Other than that, VA has much to offer and NOVA does not influence VA politics nearly as much as NYC influences NY politics. Or so is seems to an outsider.

Good luck and learn from our mistakes.
