Casper Star Tribune story of FSW and the Jam, July 4th, 2007

Wow!

Front page article! All in all, a very good article. There is only one tiny problem with it. It states that Baron and Stahla (Crook county attorney and sheriff) have never arrested anyone in the FSW. That is a bald faced lie (not by Cory, but by Stahla and Baron). I can personally attest that they have bragged that they deliberately "slammed" someone because they were in the FSW.

Other than that A really positive and informative article!

Thanks Cory!  Well done.

Is the article available on line? Please post a link. I'll go look, but might not find it.

If not, could someone please scan it and post it? We all need to see it. Thanks!!!!

You might want to buy one. You are on the front page and the "continued" section (almost a full page!)

Thanks, I did find it. The only thing I'm disappointed about is what he left out. We talked at great length about self responsibility, non-aggression and integrity as the backbone of FSW and our self defense/shooting culture, but he left out most of it. Too bad.

[Brandy]

The version we have has two pitctures of MamaLiberty and ManfromNevada on the front page then on page 11 is a picture of Shawn and his M1A and a picture of Boston talking to a crowd.  Overall a good article.

Great story I think. Fair. Balanced.

Very nice. I liked this touch:

A pair of California license plates from her former life leans up against the Newcastle cabin. They are riddled with bullet holes.

[SafetyFactor]

Yeah, she barely made it out of Cali alive. You should have seen the rest of the car!  LOL  

I remember helping to aerate those plates.    Mama, did you ever send a photo of them to the Governor?

Great article in my view, too.

[MamaLiberty]

No, I never did. I can't imagine that "Ahnold" would be impressed, even if he ever saw it. Or some moron might construe it as some sort of weird "threat" to him...

I wrote off California totally at some point in the last year. I just feel sorry for my family and all the other good people I know there.

They know where I am, and I tell my story frequently. It's better to spend the time and resources recruiting the good folks to seek freedom, and leave the dead to bury their dead...

Wish he'd have gotten the forum address complete though.

      I liked it and thought it was fine. Most likely the rest of the papers here will jump on the bandwagon soon. Brace yourselves. B

[MamaLiberty]

I was discouraged by most of the "comments" to that story. Either people don't really read things, or they have their minds made up and don't care what it says. How can anyone decide that we want to change Wyoming to what we came from by that story? How can they decide we are all "paranoid" from that story? People are just so damned frustrating. Yes, even in Wyoming sometimes. sigh

Were these the "letters to the editor" or are they somewhere else? I didn't find any.

[Danl]

Well for my part I am thrilled with this article.  We are just regular folks looking to join with people in Wyoming who generally consider freedom, personal responsibility, without being acting offensively toward others.

YES!!!!!!!

Overall great. It is amazing though, how many people posting comments to the article still don't understand us and paint us with a broad brush. It is as if they don't believe anything in the article. Skepticism is good, though...I am hoping they can channel some of that toward their politicians.
