New York is not New England and it definitely was bigger than what’s shown in this map at the time of the revolution. Canada was part of the Uk. Britain would definitely not give up full access of the Hudson and Great Lakes. Massachusetts Plymouth and Maine would be one state. All of cure Vermont would be part of Uk New England. They declared separate independence but the other 13 colonies and the Uk did not recognize them as such. No idea why Maine would be called New Ireland. It’s nothing like Ireland. UK hated Irish people, the population of the colonies was not very friendly to Catholics. So I don’t understand why Maine would be called that. It wouldn’t even be an independent colony. It had like no population. It was forest and moose.

It may have been as simple as getting gas. I don’t take my kids out getting gas, that would also be a stupid decision to expose them to moving traffic and unknown predators whole I’m occupied operating the pump. I do take my keys out of the car, and lock it, but my wife’s key fob will start the car with me standing at the passenger side door. We know because we’ve tested this when we heard these types of thefts were happening around us. So when I get gas, I rig the pump to stay on with my gas cap and stand back. Even then people carry repeaters now that boost the signal of your key…super low tech and cheap to be had…considering getting an RFID pouch for just this purpose; steal the car but just leave the kids.

Where did I say I was "thirsty" to see boobs? I said thet nobody should have a problem with this business existing. I don't even know where this town is because it's so far away from me. So I'm certain I'll never be there. I wouldn't drive more than 15 minutes to buy weed or see boobs. 🤷
