Is it just me or are you sick and tired of all the wanna be "make it big in New York" types that flock to New York? Yes it's the greatest city in the world...blah blah blah...but it's also our city. Keep away tourists!!

I think you are being a bit dramatic. The toursits are a part of new york. The new blood in this city keeps it interesting.

Tourists are part of New York, like it or not.

I would have to agree with boutymoves ~ This Great city was made for tourists indeed! http://www.nyctourist.com

Hi Lester, just came across this post, and I must say I am EXTREMELY shocked at your attitude. NY is all about the people, the diverse cultures, the exotic foods etc. I would hate it if every time I visited NY i felt uncomfortable or unwelcome. It does like you are outnumbered here.

Absolutely! We all love NY!!!

Lester you certainly are not making people like myself feel welcome...I'm looking to move to New York early next year. I just put up another question about New York, perhaps you could help me out?

If it weren;t for tourists, all the Olive Garden's in NYC would be out of business. You decide.

I suspect this was just a topic to draw attention. So, it would appear that folks are really concern about this controversy post which doesn't mount to a hill of beans! IMHO ~ it was posted just keep this topic going and if it was a major concern.

Tourists are always going to be a major component to this GREAT CITY!!!

I think a button should be created on this site to END and/or change TOPIC(S) like this!!!

Oh, what do you know, there is such a button! LOL!!
