I've been a Masshole since 1967 & I am proud of it

To The Daily Sun,

Concerning some of the responses in the paper and online about the letter stating that Laconia was a “war zone.” Here is a great idea: Why don’t we simply tell every out-of-stater to stay out of New Hampshire and go spend their money and time elsewhere? Then all of you "nobles" can go explain to all the local businesses why their shops and restaurants are closing. Because without these visitors (including those disgusting Massholes), you won’t be that "open" for long. Ski areas, concert venues, marinas — kiss them all good-bye! So please, go ahead and keep bashing! 

And since Massachusetts is SUCH a horrible place, go ahead and get your own teams, since the Pats, Bruins, Celtics, and Red Sox all have plenty of “local loyal” fans and don’t need your support since Boston and Foxborough are clearly in "vile" Massachusetts.

I moved up here from Massachusetts because of the natural beauty of the area, and because of how nice the people seemed. Now I see you’re not so different than that jerk who slammed Laconia! Which, I felt he was out of line as well. Laconia has always had great potential and it is sad to see it not being used.

And yes, I have been a Masshole since 1967 and proud of it!
