How are they going to know who is a NYer and who isn't or are they

Worldwide jurisdiction of New York counter-terrorism police!

Wasn't that the primary reason for the war of 1812? That the United
States rejected the right of the British government to apprehend
British citizens who had deserted the Royal Navy when found outside
British territory? (in this case aboard American ships)

What are you talking about? Apprehending a foreign-flagged ship at sea --
merchant, passenger, navy or coast guard -- was an act of war. The British
navy was impressing men into the British navy, and that included Americans.
They confiscated merchandise. They were enforcing a blockade versus
France. There was no lawful jurisdiction to do anything of the kind.

The British violated numerous treaties it had signed with American not
to do such things, and the impressment of Americans into the British
navy continued for several additional decades despite the Treaty of
Ghent.

And now New York is claiming the same right the British did in 1812?

UH.......

It's counterterrorism with counterspying. They've been doing it since
9/11 since anything happening anywhere can result in an attack in New
York. They must have to work actively to get rid of the Bronx accents to
be effective spooks.
