Sometimes just by existing in this state you're involuntarily breaking laws the way these idiots keep changing and writing them.Just don't break more than 1 law at a time
Don’t forget to vote for Hochul!!My fellow residents in the Adirondacks are not pleased.
Hochul backed off on the adk and Catskill rule wthin the first week of her new Hitler laws.
It doesn’t matter what her mouth poops out- she signed a bill into law that makes the Adirondack Park Forest Preserve lands a sensitive place where firearms are prohibited. You think “But the Go er or said I could!” is gonna keep people from getting jammed up when it comes down to it? The law is bad, but it’s the law. I haven’t seen anyone amend the new law to relax the regs on the Adirondacks yet.Hochul backed off on the adk and Catskill rule wthin the first week of her new Hitler laws.
That's no exaggeration either!Had to...there's still a lot of voting, froth-at-the-mouth DemonRats up here in Satan's Country.
I'm curious as to why so many DemonRats there?Had to...there's still a lot of voting, froth-at-the-mouth DemonRats up here in Satan's Country.
No, the Hippies, Artsy-fartsy folks, and other assorted freaks that want to be "back to nature" (especially from NYC) tend to follow I-87 North, forget to hook a Right into VT and end up in the Adirondacks where they pontificate about how swell the World would be IF we'd just let them do what they want (and get rid of Trump; they litterally loose their shit upon the utterance of his name) There's no money outside of Saranac Lake (except for the uber rich fuckers that have mansion sized "Cottages" no real industry sans the Summer Tourists...It's beautiful country up there, with great fishing, hunting, and natural recreation, but once the snow starts the place turns into The Stanley Hotel and the residents just as wacked as Nicholson's character.I'm curious as to why so many DemonRats there, usually the rural areas are red like here where I live.
There are not a lot of lefty libtards around here once you get out of Batavia.
It's definitely Trump country.
And even Batavia isn't that bad for a city, but it is a small city of only 16,000.
OK, thanks.

Hochul's an asshole.
The Democrats are why we can not have nice things.
Most people I know just want to be left alone.
OK, thanks. Now I get it.
It's a different type of rural around here. More of a farms and cows type of rural than the
"back to nature." Fortunately, the farms and swamps don't pull in the dirty hippies.
Being almost as far away from NYC as one can get but still be in New York State helps too. We have more in common with the people of PA and OH than we do the Downstate - NYC people.
Just sayin'
EDIT, whoops I accidentally got off topic. Sorry about that.
I always thought of the Adirondacks as a really rural area so probably heavily conservative.Yes big difference. I've been a few times and while there are the usual "country people" in the Adirondacks it's also a lot of others that see it as their downstate refuge. You get the NYC authors, teachers, hippies, limousine liberals who think they are in nature at their cottage, democrat fudds, etc. The Adirondacks are much more like Vermont demographic than they are the southern tier.
It's very different from a place like Wyoming or cattaragus county. Both rural but very different people.

That's interesting. The furthestThere are also large differences between the small villages, and within the same village.
I live where this place is - Sunmount Veterans Administration Hospital - Historic Saranac Lake - LocalWiki
It's not a veteran's hospital anymore - it houses everything from people who are "profoundly and severely" handicapped, requiring 24/7/365 care all the way up to a lot who are "criminally insane" - AKA murderers, child molesters, etc, etc, including those who "played the system" and should be in Dannemore or Sing-Sing.
If you check the link above, this is the last paragraph...it is Saranac Lake who didn't want Sunmount in their perfect little village.
Saranac Lake isn't called the "Ithaca of the ADK" for nothing.
"The only blot on their medical escutcheon, rarely mentioned, was their successful lobbying efforts to prevent the construction in this village of the Sunmount Veterans Hospital because they did not want the "rabble" of the World War I veterans to disrupt the easy flow of life in this then successful health community. But that mistaken effort has long since been forgotten, even buried. [. . .] J.L. [Jim Loeb] For the full text of the article above, see Saranac Lake Medical Society."
But even in this village there are lots of DemonRats.
Below is the 2016 presidential vote by county - Franklin county (where I am) is the county just west of the blue one in the upper right - the latter county is where SUNY Plattsburgh is situated...
Saranac Lake is virtually on the border of Franklin county and the pink county (Essex) to the east of the "panhandle" of Franklin and south of the DemonRat warren of Plattsburgh.
Both Franklin and Essex are pink, but neither is as red as the "core" ADK counties in the middle. In fact, if you look at the color shift, the lightest pink is only one step from light blue (DemonRat).
Every libtard virtue-signaling "cause" there is takes hold in Saranac Lake.
Even so, Franklin has more people than Essex county, so it's "less rural".
So, I contend it's natural beauty is great, but so is that of communist China...but it's not like living in "real" rural communities, as @Bigfoot said...
