Crosman Leaving NY State

[Watertender]

The Crosman Air Gun company is leaving their East Bloomfield NY facility by the end of 2024 according to several news stories that I have seen today. This leaves about 100 people out of work in the manufacturing plant.

Even air gun companies don't want to do business in NY....

 

[contender]

The people in power don't care. They cater to the woke crowd,, and WANT companies like that to leave. Sadly,,, unless it takes MILLIONS of dollars out of THEIR tax budget,, they won't even notice.

You are absolutely correct Contender.......NYS politicians want anything related to the evil firearms trade to leave the state. IIRC, the previous governor said that specifically (before he was sued for sexual harassment(s) and forced to leave office). The current politicians have plenty of money now that they have legalized drug use here in NYS. It seems that they believe guns are more evil and dangerous than drugs... !!!
p.s. pot smokers, pls. forgive me for taking license in my diatribe

Sad part is that PEOPLE are also leaving New York and FLOCKING to Florida; Tearing down all the woodlands, tearing up all the pasture land and clogging the road ways.

The question is.....why did it take them this long to wake up?? They should have been packing in Obama's first term!

What's a " turn signal"....????
I don't drink water...........W.C. Fields said that 'fish copulate in it' and it's unsanitary.

It isn't only NY. Baretta left Maryland some years ago for the same reason. The anti-gun culture and stupid laws.

We're having the same problems with people from Florida here in Oregon.

and NJ, Mass, Maryland, and other NE states and bringing their leftist ideals with them when they leave a state they don't like but want the state they move to to become more like the one they left.

I thought, we all made a New Year "resolution", that if we couldn't say anything "nice" we would do our best to avoid saying something negative or "nasty"....
Just a reminder,

I think you're 100% right. Not only here, but on other forums we all should be aware of our verbiage, but I think there's a difference between matter of fact comments and nasty.

Take my comment...

"Even worse they take the same liberal political views they fled!" I think is just a factual statement.

While...

"Those morons take the same liberal..."

Would definitely be nasty and inflammatory which I did not mean.

Having homes in both Maryland and Massachusetts I can assure you that if I ever left either I damn sure wouldn't want to bring their 'politics' to anywhere I would move to.

That's the way in Western North Carolina too! In my county there is not a square inch of agricultural land that is not in danger of turning into multifamily dwellings. I understand that along the interstate highways Muslim/Saudi money is building empty industrial/warehouse buildings. In my county, two have been built that can't be occupied because there isn't a water source available. Woops!

When IBM shutdown operations for the PC company in Florida I was offered a job in Raleigh. A lovely lady realtor took us around to see properties with acreage for two days and since several associates had moved to Cary I asked her to show us homes there.

She told me (paraphrased) "You're nice folks who would like some room and acreage, Cary isn't your sort of place to live"

I asked why not? and she replied... "we locals call Cary a Containment Area for Relocated Yankees" and you do NOT want to live there, trust me!
