Title: Hello from NY!
Post by: Against the Decline on January 21, 2015, 08:03:17 PM: Greetings ConservativeCave!

My pseudonym is Against The Decline. I am a student from NY, and I'm 18 years old. I've been into politics since my early-teens, and currently I would describe myself as a conservative and an American Patriot. I love this country, and take pride in its foundations of justice and liberty. Before this, I bounced around a bit. Going from liberal to moderate to semi-conservative. I used to be a proponent of stronger taxes, but now that I've finally started working, I see now that taxes :censored: suck. I was also a strong proponent of social justice (or what I perceived was justice), but reality hit me in the face once again when I realized that perfectly qualified individuals suffer as a result of policies such as affirmative action and an obscenely large welfare system.

I'm hoping to be around for a while. I'll see you on the forums, all.

It's not a problem, I would have probably done the same thing.

I'd like to thank all of you for the welcomes, I appreciate it.

Hey, I'm from Oyster Bay. Okay, I haven't been there since 1979, but I lived there for a few years.

I remember the blizzard of '77. It was pretty nasty.

I shoveled lots of snow back then here in the Midwest.

The blizzards about a year ago were bad. I remember every other week there was a blizzard, it was ridiculous.

It's strange here, either there's a million inches of snow or there's little to none whatsoever.
