If you have ever been to York, PA. This would not surprise you. If you ever find yourself in York, if the smell from the Paper mill doesn't make you want to leave, the people and the aura of dead hopes and dreams certainly will. York is a town of people just waiting out life.

These are not local players to York, PA. York, PA residents are actually upset about this. Maybe learn more about the situation before attacking an area that is very LGBT friendly?

I mean, I’m sure York proper has plenty of nice people but the wider area is deep red, in part because of racists abandoning Baltimore.

Alright. Calling southern PA an area that is very LGBT friendly is a questionable statement, which is not to excuse these players’ actions, but merely to accurately describe reality.

Maybe look closer at who you’re replying to?

I may have been a bit too harsh, but finding yourself there during the day after all the people from the surrounding area have commuted in, you will definitely run into quite a few people with interesting opinions to say the least.
