AAAWWW, did I hurt your feelings?
I rest my case.
It's a shame that a self-identified Conservative such as yourself continues to reside in a region where liberalism rules and union goons are triumphant. I can fully understand what you've become as a native New Yorker. It's very sad. May Almighty God richly bless you and restore a sense of genuine humility and authentic Christian kindness to your clearly troubled soul.
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. -- Philippians 4:13
