How do you spot a NYC tourist?

Their big effing mouths on the train!!
Tonight a group came on the 2. The guy was clearly trying to impress the 2 chicks he was with. He was saying crap like there are little apples but big apple is Manhattan cuz everyone goes there to work but theres still 20000 people there at night and thats why its called the big apple and no one gives a !@#$ about Brooklyn or Queens cuz they are tiny apples. I stood with my mouth open and 2 New Yorke4s were as shocked as me, but one guy initiated the balls toconfront them. He said he wasnt particular about his "hood" but many are so the guy better watch his mouth before he says stuff,like that. Discovered they were from Maryland (damn Ravens fans!!) but the guy running his mouth was from Bahrain, but he claimed no one has ever heard of the middle east! Really?? I spoke up and said I've not only heard of Bahrain but I've been to the middle east:-) Big mouths changed the subject. The guy who initiated dialogue advised them to watch their mouth cuz they werent in Times Square and soon to enter Harlem after 110 st. The tourists got off at 96th st:-)
I guess I've been here enough to. be dumbfounded about what ppl say but what they said was bs.
No one cares about Brooklyn and Queens?
Hurricane Sandy destroyed Staten Island and most people are homeless?
Really??

FYI- tourists do get in peoples way here, on a winding mountain highway in a car. Also if you think stopping on a sidewalk is bad, imagine being on skies or snowboard going @ 20 MPH on a steep grade ,and have someone stop in front of you I don't think most Coloradoans hate tourists, maybe get annoyed a bit, we know that tourism is a very important part of the economy. I do like the solution you posted, maybe a keep right except to pass law. We do have that on our Interstates here, sort of works, but not so much during rush hour.
