MA could advertise tourism by highlighting the fact that ICE is sending the Central Americans there so that they will be 'passing thru' according to Gov Duval. Am sure it is because MA is a nice place to visit! ME tourism could advertise the problem they have with alcoholism and abuse of women there? I know for a fact that NJ tourism is not advertising how easy it is to join a gang when one comes for a visit! That could be interesting! NH? Well, I just can't think of a problem they have there that could keep tourists away; especially since they live by that 'live free or die' motto and have no sales tax!

I believe you missed the point. Peachie was responding to the fact that the person calling us apologists has often been an apologist herself.
At least, that's what I got out of her post.
We are not apologists; we are expressing our opinion. Calling us apologists for expressing our opinion is the same as telling us our opinion is wrong. And I object to that.
