Have you lost your MIND!!
 .........I have been stationed in Mass since early 2003 and I will never regret the long commute I take to drive from New Hampshire to Boston. I grew up in Maine so I'm partial to Maine but still would leave New England in a heartbeat if the antigun and liberal nonsense spreads.......I lived in Plymouth, MA for a year and also on upper Cape Cod for 1/2 a year. A lot of good people in Mass. but the liberals have some form of rabies......They things I have had said to me by Mass liberals would get their teeth knocked out anywhere else. Anyways.....aside from some scenery and history I can't think of anything good modern day Mass. has to offer....

Did you forget how to read? I said if it was a red state and the RKBA wasn't restricted.
 In other words, fantasy land. |

I moved out almost seven years ago and would never move back. Even if they changed it to a gun friendly paradise. Most of the people are just weird, Liberalism is bread in. To congested. Have you ever been to Cambridge? I'm not insulting anyone on this board, because I know if you are on the AR site and live in Mass then your trapped and can't get out.

I also grew up in Pembroke then joined the Army and now live in Maine. I understand the missing aspect. I went down to visit some friends the other weekend which brought back alot of memories but could not wait to get back up north. I pray that someday maybe people will smarten up but I know thats just a dream that will probably never come true. Oh well, i'll just visit every once and a while to remind me why I left. I cant believe how much it has changed just since I was youg, its crazy now how much it has become a real peoples republic.

I can understand how one might miss the rich historical nature of the state. It's a poignant irony that Mass is the birthplace of the American Revolution.

My family and I visit friends in the MA North West Berkshires a couple of times a year. Beautiful, beautiful countryside and I would move there in a minute if the rest of the state wasn't so scewed up.

I DON'T miss Ma.
Every time i go there they charge me for something. Taxes out the wazzou. I got spoiled by moving north. Now when i go to buy something in Ma, i think, "Hmm, if i buy this at home it will cost FIVE PERCENT LESS". That right there is motivation enough. ETA: i grew up in Franklin Co. so i didn't see lots of that eastern BS, but that eastern BS still impinges way out here. People try to ignore it but- there it is! I buy a beer in Bernardston, and i still pay for the Big Dig. Fuck that. |

Yes 5% is a lot! too much!
1% is too much! 1x10-9 % is too much! I mean why? they tax my money when i make it, do they need to tax it when i spend it, too? seriously. Everytime i go to Pa to hunt its 7%! I looked at the girl as if she was crazy, I'll tell you what. 7%? WTF? When the tax revolt comes I'll be revolting

Personally, I'd take a universal sales tax over income tax anyday, because flat tax would NEVER happen in this country. |

I LOVE MASSACHUSETTS!
Why? The history.   The landscape.   The freaks!           Never a dull moment here!

History? Well..........early American history - that's about it........ Landscape? You mean the Big Dig or do you mean Boston Common with the homeless bums? Freaks? Well.........my girlfriend IS from Mass.........so some useage of the word *cough* "freak" may be in order.........  The only thing about Mass. I really like is my ability to drive 90mph (in a truck) in the brakedown lane with reckless abandon........I recently got a range membership at Pelham (NH) Fish and Game - for you "northern Massholes" I highly recommend it - good club and its got an Action Range (Practical/IDPA/IPSC) with three pits. |
