If you lived there you wouldn't have that problem though. The roads are well maintained and most homes have double storm doors and covered verandahs/porches so you don't have to dig your way out the front door.

The only good thing about Buffalo is Niagara Falls.

I was somewhat disappointed with Niagra Falls

It looks so much bigger than in real life.

And on the Canadian side, where I was, it is overly commercialized to death.

But at least the people were nice.

45 years of paying taxes and watching parasites waste the money I give them.

45 years of working and saving, only to see the parasites tell me im an invader who has stolen their land, land that they were too lazy and incapable of defending.
"Thank god, we have the Maxim and they do not." A short, succinct poem by Hillaire Belloc. He was writing about European Imperialism in Africa in the latter half of the 19th century. Australia was the same - superior technology backed with ruthless efficiency, facing a largely scattered, nomadic indigenous population. The Europeans encountered resistance in and around Sydney, Melbourne and in Tasmania. The Europeans wiped out the Tasmanian Indigenous population - in otherwords, Genocide or "ethnic cleansing". One of the few very successful cases in world history. In Africa, the Indigenous folk gave the Europeans quite a few scares. The Ashanti wars, the Zulu War to name a few. Rorkes Drift was after Isandlwana where 1,200 British soldiers lost their lives. The Africans were not an easy push over, nor were the Indigenous Australians - not by a long shot. The Australian frontier wars did occur.
