Actually I have worked in NYC for an extended time, 6 months to be exact. That was until some kooky Islamic fundamentalists ran two airliners into the WTC. I was working in the North tower, and staying at the Vista Hotel/WTC #5
No offense, but if you do not know the mechanisms of how NYC has survived it's terrible political and economic policy, not to mention it's insistance, be it polictical or social, on a far left liberal policy, then maybe a history lesson of your own home town is in order. Do not make the mistake of assuming that my patriotism for the events of 9/11 have been blurred by my distaste for NYC's infringement of most of the United States Consitution. One only has to look closely at the current Mayors antics for furthering gun control legislation to see that even in NYC republicans are driven by a socialist legislature or possibly a socialist people. Bloombergs recent attacks on the state of Va for firearm sales are evidence, muck like that of the Mayor of Chicago, is the preverbial "Tail wagging the dog" He seems to forget that Pataki is the Govenor, not him.
Yeah, I may be from the lowly state of Kentucky, and I may only harber a degree from a Kentucky state University, but I do know the facts. At the very least, my observations would likely gather a following of fellow hard line constitutionalists.
