[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 761256, member: 9859"] If you live within the close proximity of NYC, such as NJ or Conn, don't you live the Tri-State Area ? Oh well shouldn't they have a say using your logic ? What about the folks from Freeport to the tip of Montawk Long Island ? How about The Hudson Valley ? Hell the whole NorthEastern part of the United States should have a say at this....Sorry, they, along with the rest of the country just get an opinion, that's all... Without getting into a pro/anti gov't debate let's stay focused at the issue at hand, shall we ?... Ask any Native New Yorker where they're from, and 99 out of 100 will tell you what borough...unless of course they're visiting the South. Then, they have to spell it out to those folks down there...N Y C or Just watch the 1979 cult movie "The Warriors" ...boroughs are like soveriegn countries to those guys.... The NYC Council, made up with representatives of NYC's 5 boroughs, along with the Mayor gave the go ahead, in accordance to the local law and zoning codes, the property owner's legal right to build what he wants. Nobody has been denied the rights in this instance. I know you have a problem with zoning/building codes and regulations set forth by democratically elected leaders that form our Gov't, but deal with it. It's never going to change. Let's not sugarcoat here, you are here defending the pitch fork carring angry mob from outside the borough of Manhattan demanding "a do over" or a "time out" of our most cherished pillar of the US constitution, the 1st amendment. You are breaking every code of honor you have been preaching to all of us in the past for adhereing to the Constitution and allowing state and local Gov't to handle their own affairs from the Feds. Now your splitting hairs with irrelavent hypothetical questions positioning your anti Gov't wants and needs, in favor for a distant mob rules mentality. Am I having trouble keeping up ? Not in the least, especially when the Constitutionality of issues arise and Civil liberty injustices occur..... polls, sensitivity, emotions are not wieghed by the scales of Lady Liberty. Popularity does not precede the law of the land. If so, Blacks would still be second class citizens, and women would not have the right to vote or earn equal pay. So ironic, I'm using Fox News to prove a point, and you fail to back a local issue without the feds getting involved...Go figure [/QUOTE]
