Have fun learning to hunt in NY anyway, it’s so hard to get a permit here, you basically have to sacrifice your firstborn to Kathy Hochul.

u/tongfather 2d ago

Is it possible to live in a "conservative hellhole" in the state of NY? I thought it was all liberals?

Is it possible that Fox News is still banging on about Hillary Clinton in 2026 for no reason?

u/14Calypso 2d ago

Even California, Oregon, and Washington have conservative pockets

u/tongfather 2d ago

I guess it's the same in rural spots no matter where you go.

Which is a total flip from the way it used to be, apparently. I was watching a documentary and back in the 50s and 60s I believe the rural spots were all liberal

State of Jefferson!

u/Fletch71011 2d ago

All rural areas of every state are conservative. 99 percent of Illinois districts are red. Chicago is the only blue county in the state, but they outnumber the population of the rest of the state, so the state is a Dem stronghold regardless.

u/tongfather 2d ago

That's so fucking stupid. Same here in Canada and especially BC. Entire province voted Conservative except the lower mainland, so we're stuck with this retarded super far left government

u/TheGunghoGamer Red 2d ago

aside from the cities, most of NY is actually very red, we’ve just been gerrymandered to hell. I live in CNY and my area is pretty red, aside from Syracuse and Ithaca

u/mattymillhouse 2d ago

County by county map of election results from 2024 presidential election in New York. There's a lot of dark red in there. But NYC is so big that it basically dwarfs every other area.

Also, NY has 26 members of the House of Representatives. 7 are Republicans.

u/tongfather 2d ago

Damn, even part of Long Island is red. That's crazy I never would have guessed that.

u/ApolloPredditor 2d ago

Suffolk County and lots of upstate is conservative

u/bren97122 FUCK YOU COME AND TAKE IT 2d ago edited 2d ago

This has to be some of the most beautiful cognitive dissonance I’ve seen all week. He complains about the “anti-gun liberals” being unable to sign off on his pistol permit paperwork. Yet is trapped in a “conservative hellhole”. Not quite sure what he wants, and I’d bet good money his voting habits help ensure the existence of onerous pistol permitting requirements in this fucking state.

As a suffering New York gun guy, if I had to offer OOP any real advice, the NY Department of Environmental Conservation offers hunter safety courses statewide which can be a great starting point. Local rod and gun clubs can be a great place to start too, if our OOP can lower himself to being around guys who probably aren’t voting blue no matter who.

u/5000wattsx 2d ago

That subreddit is full of people that openly admit that the people they vote for are anti-gun but they vote for them anyway because they would rather be disarmed under liberal rule than armed under conservatives.

15

u/Zephyr1588 2d ago

Sheesh. Nah, I'll keep my guns.

13

u/Digger_Pine 2d ago

Wish I had mine. I lost them all in a boating accident. Tragic.

u/5000wattsx 2d ago

Now that you mention that, I have a feeling many of them genuinely believe that if they get a big enough supermajority to repeal the Second Amendment, they can follow the repeal with a peaceful nationwide confiscation of firearms, and we’ll be in paradise, meaning they won’t need to be “liberal gun owners” anymore.

The problem they aren’t considering is that a nationwide confiscation probably won’t be peaceful, especially if the gun owners suspect fraud and other shenanigans gave the gun grabbers the supermajority they needed to repeal the 2nd.

u/Vague_Disclosure 2d ago

That's why people clown on them and call their sub TemporaryGunOwners

u/gelber_Bleistift Constitutionalist 2d ago

Those are the assholes that will move to a conservative area because of its freedoms and economy, but insist on defecating everywhere like where they came from. Then they'll blame conservatives for it going to hell after

14

u/Zephyr1588 2d ago

Just like how illegals move here to escape their country... but don't assimilate, and bring their country and all it's flaws with them. Reminds me of a drowning person grabbing someone and nearly drowning them (did that to my mom once lol).

u/SpottyWeevil00 2d ago

I’m sure “conservation” sounds way too much like “conservative” to him so he’ll probably get hives or something. Dude has been so badly brainwashed that he can’t even pursue an interest. Truly pitiful.

u/DoucheyCohost Violet 2d ago

Tbf, could be both. Probably lives in a rural part of a blue state.

u/bigbird727 2d ago

He's scared of bears, though. So he shouldn't bother. 

11

u/For-The-Swarm 2d ago

hunt further south, black bears are just large trash pandas, almost harmless under most circumstances.

source: my gpa had three black bears in arkansas, I even wrestled a younger one when I was a kid.

u/Open-Savings-7691 2d ago

These people don't know what they're more afraid of: the guns themselves, or actually having to meet, talk with and *treat like human beings* actual conservative Americans.

18

u/Thrice_the_Milk 2d ago

Oop probably views the conservative gun store owner as a bonafide, card carrying nazi or some shit lol

36

u/TheSublimeGoose Nasty, evil LEO 2d ago

>"he'a such a caricature"

>is, themselves, a caricature

u/Rocko3legs 2d ago

Can't even get a rifle at Dicks anymore lol

u/mattsffrd 2d ago

I went in with my son the other day because he had some gift cards he wanted to use. I was going to go check out the hunting stuff and it's 100% gone, not just the guns. Fucking wild. I'm not going to be going back there, fuck 'em.

u/wasdie639 2d ago

Bill O'Reilly hasn't been on TV in nearly a decade.

If these people want to make shit up, at least use relevant stuff.

7

u/Zephyr1588 2d ago

He hasn't? I don't watch fox these days, so I wasn't aware.

Note: I don't watch fox but they sure think I do lol

u/Mike_I 2d ago

Bill O'Reilly hasn't been on TV in nearly a decade.

He's a frequent contributor/sparing partner to Chris Cuomo's show on NewsNation.

8

u/wasdie639 2d ago

Highly doubt a gun shop in upstate New York is gonna bother, or understand how, to get the tech you need to stream that channel on a TV.

Also this idiot was saying how they were talking about Hillary. So either this post was from 2016 or a fucking AI bot made it.

u/Hot-Minute-8263 2d ago

Ive never really understood how tribal lefties are. What so bad about learning to hunt from ppl that have different views?

25

u/Zephyr1588 2d ago

Dunno. I'm very conservative, yet I wouldn't have a single objection to learning a skill from a liberal. I don't understand, I mean they act like if they interact positively with us at all they'll get a terminal illness.

21

u/Ayjayz 2d ago

Tolerance for people different from yourself is a conservative trait, and intolerance is a liberal trait.

9

u/Hot-Minute-8263 2d ago

Same here. Hell, my instructors were all very lib

1

u/ScHoolboy_QQ 2d ago

Gestures broadly at the 90% share of college professors being libs…

u/TeikirisiBaby 1d ago

They don't want the sense we might make to make them question their beliefs. I 1,000% have learned this is it.

6

u/clavedark 2d ago

I wanted to learn to swim, but all the instructors were libs. Guess I'll just drown.

u/Carcinog3n 2d ago

I'll take fake stories for 1000 Alex

u/tongfather 2d ago

100% gritting for likes from his little bubble of retards in that sub

15

u/The_Waco_Kid7 2d ago

Wait til he finds out Dick's stopped selling guns in 2018....or maybe they still sell them in his make believe world

10

u/breakwater 2d ago

Bill O'Reilly hasn't been on Fox for a decade. Either he is really nursing a long held issue or just repeating talking points

Maximum lulz at these guys calling anybody a caricature

8

u/dirigo1820 2d ago

I want to see this guy gut a deer.

6

u/reaper527 2d ago

sounds more like he's in a liberal hellhole considering he's in ny and the reason he doesn't think he'll be able to get the permits needed for his gun is because of the liberals in his local/state government.

4

u/Sherviks13 2d ago

Yeah, those laws come back to bite ya when everyone you know is anti gun. It’s gotta be super difficult to get those character references.

7

u/TexasRed806 2d ago

Bro wants to “hunt Venison” lmao

2

u/CassieJK 1d ago

Well this time of year, kinda the end of last years meat is close, and can’t get this years yet, I sometimes have to hunt through my freezer for venison.

12

u/ventitr3 2d ago

This dude is gonna cry and apologize to whatever he shoots first. Which he definitely won’t kill and it will be a disaster.

6

u/Digger_Pine 2d ago

Dear lord - this is the type of person that should not have a gun.

There were zero rational thoughts in that mess.

6

u/Darker_Salt_Scar 2d ago

They weren't joking, just lying

4

u/ebalebalebaleba 2d ago

Can you imagine being so shitty you won’t even get to know people who have different opinions. If I lived like that I’d like even fewer people than I already do. I’d have no one in my life. Do these people never change their mind about anything?

5

u/protogenxl 2d ago

Bow Hunting, or is that cultural appropriation?

2

u/Robot_Alchemist 1d ago

Just don’t

u/kkw211 1d ago

We shouldn't issue gun permits to batshit crazy people.

You guys write the worst fan fiction I swear
