repubs in New Haven, although I could be wrong. I live in the NW Hills of CT., and there has never been a reason for me to go to new haven. Yale is there, it is very diversed and also a sanctuary for undocumented people.

I suspect someone from that area will jump in and say something.

I wouldn't know if someone was jewish or catholic or whatever, unless their clothing stated their religion, example a burka would be a dead give away.

How sad this is, seems we lost our country at the turn of the century and I don't know how to get it back.
