Hasn’t been difficult in NY unless you’re white. Since the 90’s the state was training the illegals (dreamers) for free. Was about the same time all the literature at DMV became written in Spanish. Same time the voting places started having Spanish interpreters. Same time my insurance company went private with Lloyd’s backing to insure whites only as the scumbags were rolling shit over daily around the city. For me and you it’s tuff.

This is good as most were involved in motor pool when deployed already except the same I mentioned above had problems.

Don’t drive there butthead you’ll get stuck! “D’oh!” No one listens.
