Very interesting read. Thanks for sharing. I'd never heard about that example of Americans reclaiming their community.
My attention span is too short to read that whole thing. Can you summarize?
WWII vets where getting hosed in a election by the local sheriff so the stormed the jail and took the ballots and proved they where right , got off with no charges filed
Thank you. See how easy that was? Someone should tell that author no one likes an over achiever.... [Coffee]Quote:
