Proud New Yorker

To the editor: I am a proud New Yorker! I have been here in Milford for two years now, I like living here. But,if I had the choice, I would be in N.Y.! I am disgusted with the comment, ”New Yorkers bring their trouble with them”. I am a married woman with 3 small kids, I am not a drug dealer, prostitute, gangbanger piece of trash who moved here from N.Y. If it were not for us from N.Y., N.J. and so on moving here, good old Milford and Dingmans Ferry would not have sold the homes they have sold, the commerce we bring would not be here. No one that I know here is even from here!! WE all are implanted from somewhere else. Isn’t that the point, to melt as one as a human race, not to single a group out?? How defamatory to say its New Yorker’s bring trouble. Why just us? It is not fair to make a blanket statement like that, even from a so called high ranking official, someone who is supposed to uphold laws, but looks down at others? I feel, he should be forced to make a public opology to all of us trouble making New Yorkers! A former born and raised but still proud NYwoman!! Suzanne Dreher Milford
