I read somewhere that insurance rates in Florida have doubled in the past 3 years. Is that true?

I think I could live in NYC if I could carry 3 or 4 AR-15's, had as many bodyguards as Eric Adams and Nanny Pigloosli and a compound surrounded by fortified walls and sentries posted on top of the walls with machine guns.
Actually NYC has a pretty low crime rate.

I however, lived on Upstate NY for thirty years. I'm telling you it was not hard living on Lake Ontario. Great fishing and beaches near by. Winters were brutal before global warming. I had to leave for economic reasons. If you ever go, make sure you visit the finger lake wineries. their Reislings and Gerchdemenirs are the best in the world. You can't by them in regular liquor stores.

Yes, if you are Mayor Adams or the Governor who have body guards to protect them. Your chances of being robbed, raped, murdered or assaulted would be pretty low.

XXX,
I lived in NY for 35 years when times were good and I carried a weapon illegally! Did you ever hear of Bernard Goetz? He is one of the heroes of NYC! I would let them get a peek of my weapon and they would walk away. So I never had to use it, but the threat was always there! Today Forgetaboutit!

On a really clear day I can see the NYC skyline from the bridge near me, that’s around 35 miles away.

Luckily I only have to drive into and then back out of the City. Even still, I keep a can of Bear Spray next to me on the seat.
