massachusetts says no to yankee fans


A recent copycat of Arizona’s immigration law, the State of Massachusetts has enacted a new immigration law of its own.  The bill, the first bill to ever be unanimously voted for by both democrats and republicans will go into effect next week.  The new law gives the right for any police office to ask any Joe (or Jane) Baseball if they are a Yankees fan.  If they are, the police officer is permitted to burn all of their Yankees gear and they are given thirty days to leave the state.  The bill has already created buzz in other New England states.  Possibly by the end of the year New England states will no longer have to deal with “resident” Yankee fans.  On the negative side of the recent bill, the New York governor has informed New York residents - and all Yankees fans - that they are at liberty to boycott Massachusetts and any other state thinking of enacting this law.  In response the Massachusetts governor retorted, “This is a ‘Red Sox Nation.’ Good luck.”
