Yankee lawsuits in Georgia? How did they ever get in? (Apologies to Aunt Pittypat)
May 16, 2007 at 3:26 pm by John F. Sugg in NewsThat mean old Yankee mayor of New York, Michael Bloomberg, has been sending Union forces armed with lawsuits into Georgia (and other states) trying to catch gun dealers who illegally sell firearms. Many of those guns end up criminals’ hands in New York.
So a few of those fine neo-Confederates in the Georgia Legislature are preparing a legal skirmish line to drive back the Northern aggression. State Rep. Earl Ehrhart, R-DooDahDooDah, and Sen. President Pro Tempore Eric Johnson, R-LookAwayLookAway, say they’re considering legislation for next year that would make illegal the legal forays by Bloomberg’s Yankee lawyers.
Ehrhart, known primarily for his hatred of Atlanta (other than when he is hating New York), is chairman of the House Rules Committee. He told the New York Sun:
We have indoor plumbing. We have books that don’t have bark on the outside of them. We can handle our own law enforcement. … This is anti-Southern bigotry.
