But no, the OP asked a fairly benign question without making a single inflammatory or controversial statement.

Yes, you were being grouchy

I was thinking the same exact thing when i read Mr. Twigs post. Completely out of the blue from left field. although i do agree with it for the most part, with the exception of liberals being stuck in the south east corner..

MrTwigg is just doing his part of helping liberals move to MA instead of NH. After all MA has socialism down to a T, no reason for them to move to NH when it's a liberal paradise in MA.

Default Liberals not welcome

Well said sgthoskins. The last thing NH needs is more know-it-all, loud mouthed leftists moving in.

More like thread hijacking. Someone posts asking about moving to NH and some people feel they have to bring up politics.

Last time I looked, the US was still a free country and NH was still a free state. This ain't East Germany where you have to put in a request to move somewhere else. People can move wherever they want to and that is just too bad for a small minority of posters who feel a need to be in control of everything and everyone.

It has NOTHING to do with control. The issue is the leftys vote for decades in their socialist states, which make their governments grow out of control. This creates a large population of entitled people, which eventually makes that state undesirable, whether it is because of crime, housing costs, taxes, etc.

So like locusts they pick up and move on to the next host to repeat the process. So if by directing these locusts to the liberal utopia of Massachusetts will keep the NH .gov from taking away more of my money and freedoms then by all means I and many others in here will do it.

I didn't call the OP a locust. Nice assumption.

You guys crack me up. Even the most liberal states have plenty of conservatives. The most conservative states have plenty of liberals. I'm living in liberal CA at the moment. My town is chock full of conservatives. You can't assume one's political ideology merely by looking at where they are coming from. Maybe let them actually say something that describes their ideology first? The OP is a moderate. Most states need more of them, not less. Maybe I'm biased because I'm a slightly right of center moderate myself
