New Yorkers know that the beauty of our state is that it has something for everybody. There can’t be anything more different than the teeming streets of Manhattan and the quiet solitude of the Adirondack woods. It seems our lawmakers forget sometimes that the many regions and lifestyles that make our state such an interesting and stimulating place to live need to be considered when drafting laws. A bill submitted in the state Assembly and Senate this year would ban hunting derbies and would penalize those who organize them with a fine or even incarceration. |

Why should urban statists have any say over lawful rural activities?
Aside from the elitist virtue-signaling and political posturing, THAT is the real question. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
