LEITH, N.D. — The mayor of a tiny Grant County town that's been targeted for a takeover by a hate crimes fugitive said local residents are demanding more information now that the plot has been uncovered.
The article link is in the following post.

This guy sound like he wants to start something like the Free State Project (New Hampshire) or Christian Exodus (South Carolina) but with a racist twist. The town of Leith will hopefully deal with this guy. ETA: While Windsong Artemis didn't provide a link to her story, here is a link to another story about Leith, N.D. and this guy. White supremacist taking over North Dakota town?

Why is it when a white person is proud of their race, they are called supremacists?

I live in Oak Creek. WI home to a Skii temple targeted by a white supremecist last year. One can only be proud of our community response.
I don't know how to do links from my phone but the temple had a weekend "peace event" and the community has been supportive. Try the Oak Creek.WI web site for info or google Temple Shooting, Oak Creek, WI for info.

People want the laws to be what they believe, so they support candidates who align with their positions and get them elected. Just look at CA, NY, TX, or any other state/county/locality.

It's a great pity the right of free speech isn't based on the obligation to say something sensible.

it's called the "block vote" cult leaders use it to pervert our political system by using soulless, corrupt politicians.

Thanks, Artemis Windsong, but the OP still needs to be excerpted. It's too long to be posted in its entirety. - mmhmm, Administrator

When you enter Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom and you start walking up Main Street USA towards Cinderella's Castle- about the second set of buildings on your right hand side, in an upper window angled towards you (towards the main gate) you will see gold lettering on a window that reads, "M.T. Lotts Realty"... www.streetdirectory.com/travel_guide/213486/travel_and_leisure/magic_kingdom_fun_facts.htmlSetting aside his alleged status as a 'fugitive' and accepting that we live in a free country, I don't see the problem here? Of course, if you're going to do it- it would be better if you can do it more discretely. By the way- ever hear of "The Free State Project"?

I didn't realize that Canada had such repressive, illegitimate laws on the books. So, he's not a true 'fugitive' as he hasn't actually committed a crime except according to the thought police in Canada. I'm sure glad we're free from this kind of nonsense here. Good grief. What the hell is up, Canada

Was it more than just "thoughts"? I haven't read anything about this particular person. Guess I'm going to have to go sleuthing.

Yeah, thanks, Tennesseer. I've read that, and read a couple of other articles from news sources at the time. As far as I can see, he's just another waste of DNA who needs to be summarily ignored. He's not worth the time to talk about. It's like discussing the contents of your garbage, as I see it.
